Make an Investment
One amazing gift we can share with those in need is the gift of empowerment. Through NationWares, you have the opportunity to provide start-up money for an entrepreneur who would like to start a business in their community. It could be a tailor in Africa, or a jewelry artisan in Latin America. The possibilities are endless. Here are a few ways you can help give the gift of empowerment

Each month we will profile an artist in need on our blog.  The blog will tell you who they are, where they live, and how much money they need to start their business.  After you’ve read their story, visit this page and click the button that says “invest” to provide a donation to help get the business started. After you’ve made your donation we will send you email communications that will help you track the progress of the person you’ve invested in!

Are you part of a group that would like to help a NationWares artisan start a business?  For example. If you are a teacher and your class would like to support NationWares, you can raise money to start an international product line that you will help NationWares build. You may want to create a line of backpacks from Guatemala, and we’ll help you do that!  As a thank-you, you can help with product design if you like, and each person who contributed money will receive a thank-you gift from the artisan you’ve supported.

Share the Gift of Empowerment this Holiday Season.  Show someone in your life that you care by giving them a gift that will change a life around the world. Click the button that says “Gift of Empowerment” and enter your desired donation amount. The donation you give will be sent to an entrepreneur who is on our waiting list to receive the start up money they need to launch their business. Your gift will directly help bring them out of poverty. We will mail you a card to give to your friend that says the following:

In recognition of your contribution to my life, this holiday season I have chosen a special way to thank and gift my friends. In your honour, a donation has been made to NationWares to provide a microloan that will empower an artisan or entrepreneur to successfully launch a small business and defeat the cycle of poverty. This gift of empowerment will travel beyond our borders to bring hope for the holidays around the world!  Shop NationWares.com to learn more about life-changing gifts & products.
