Making a Global Impact with Social Entrepreneurship from Wichita Pt. 2


Listen Later

We continue the discussion with Cindy Miles of the Wichita Chamber of Service, Ginger Lobdell of SheHopes.org and Katy Penner of Alegria Fair Trade as we talk about social entrepreneurship having a global impact from Wichita, Kansas.  We learn more about how the Chamber of Service helps establish non-profits that then leads to groups like SheHopes.org. SheHopes funds it's operations with hand made goods from its clients in India and Kenya.  SheHopes helps with self-defense training, job training and education to help women become entrepreneurs in their own right. Alegria Fair Trade promotes fairly traded goods by marketing goods made globally by artisans and craft persons.  When artisans and farmers receive a fair wage for their work, and shoppers can buy beautiful products and create opportunity, we all win.
