Hear from grantees on the impact of WARP Artisan Support Grants:
“Your support has been a very welcome acknowledgment of the hard work we do to support the myriad individuals and communities that our work impacts. One of the most inspiring aspects of our project is continuing traditions as the knowledge of harvesting nettle and hemp is being handed down through generations. Keeping our indigenous knowledge alive is the most inspirational part of the work.”
-Prabighya Basnet, Khali Khutta, Nepal
“Our family workshop is extremely grateful for the grant that WARP gave us….Rest assured that the support was used to continue strengthening and growing the workshop where around 14 people from 5 different families work, we have never received support of this type before, and we are extremely grateful for it.”
-Wilmer Levi Sosa Mendez, Casa textile BIGUUS, Mexico
“[The WARP grant] was really instrumental in empowering more refugee women who are living in extreme poverty in our community. This also has increased production for our basket program now that we have more ladies in the basket weaving program. These skills will increase the sales made from the basket business and provide additional economic empowerment to the members of the Amani Sasa basket program.”
-Missy Ward Angalla, Amani Basket Cooperative, Uganda
