PRODUCTS
& ARTISANS
Ten Thousand Villages sells fine handcrafted goods and food
products from over 35 countries, providing more than 60,000 artisans
with a fair income with which they can provide food, healthcare,
education and housing for their families. People are at the heart
of Ten Thousand Villages.
Ten Thousand Villages works together with artisans by
building relationships, developing partnerships, determining fair
prices and paying for product up front. About 70% of our artisans are
women. Some artisan groups also seek to employ persons with physical
disabilities. Ten Thousand Villages intentionally looks to work with
people who are unemployed or underemployed. You can read much more
about how we work here.
