Knots of Freedom Macrame Bag
These sustainable, handmade bags are perfect for everyday use, grocery shopping, and the beach! Hand-woven 3-ply cotton macramé bag.
Marlar, one of Eden's graduates, designed and then went on to train the women and girls coming to the drop-in centers to handcraft these beautiful bags. The women and girls make these bags in a safe and loving environment where they also receive trauma counseling, creative therapies, and other forms of essential support.
The mission of Eden Jewelry is to extend God’s love to people who have been trafficked for the purpose of sexual exploitation. At Eden, we care for the whole person: their physical, emotional, spiritual, economic, and social well-being.
Eden’s programs are based in South-East Asia which is host to more than half of the global total of human trafficking victims.
In 2014 Eden began its programs in Myanmar, a nation that has been a hotbed for human trafficking for years. Political instability, natural disasters, and internal ethnic infighting have led to a devastating lack of opportunity for the people of Myanmar.
Poverty and political unrest are at the heart of Myanmar's human trafficking crisis, which has only grown more severe over recent years. The economic collapse, brought on by the pandemic and political crisis, has exacerbated the level of human trafficking and the need for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other not-for-profit organizations like Eden to fill this void and provide essential support to victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation.
