one-of-a-kind
Hands Up Not Handouts is an organization that partners and mentors with women around the world. Besides marketing their artistic talent, each design symbolizes a meaning and has a story behind it. Their first collection features one-of-a-kind accessories that are handmade by the women of Palestine and Rwanda. Their art gives a whole new meaning behind the power of purchase.
