Fair
Trade means lots of things to different people.
To 'Injabulo'
(the Zulu word for happiness) it is the basis for making a
difference to the lives of people. You can be assured that
purchase of any of these beautiful buttons will help towards
lives being changed for the better. These
buttons are sold through 'Injabulo'
to ensure that those who made them are paid above the minimum
wage for their products They were produced by women who are
working to empower themselves and provide a living for their
families, often under very difficult conditions which we can
hardly imagine. Many of them live in
rural areas where there is very little work so a decent wage
means that they can buy good nourishing food, pay for
education for their children but most importantly they can
hold their heads high and live with dignity.
