At the end of her long journey across the border, Mei Mei expected to start her new factory job. Instead, she was locked in a small house and forced to marry a man with severe mental illness.
As if life couldn't get worse for her, she disappointed her in-laws by having a daughter rather than the expected son. When we met her, Mei Mei had been picked up by local authorities, separated from her child, and served months in jail on immigration violations.
Stories like Mei Mei’s inspired our awareness training for at-risk communities and officials. Mei Mei is now free from sexual slavery and has been working for Eden for a few years now. She is grateful for her new life but still hopes to be reunited with her daughter one day. Mei Mei’s courage continues to inspire those around her.
The Courageous Heart Collection was created in honor of her daughter. Mei Mei hopes the miniature heart serves as an invitation for both mother and daughter to live out courageous love.
Together with survivors of human trafficking, Eden creates precious jewelry that carries their stories.
Eden is an anti-trafficking organization supporting frontline teams in Myanmar who run various programs to prevent human trafficking and empower trafficking survivors. Through a holistic program including safe shelter, health care, trauma counseling, creative therapies, and education, we journey with women on a path towards freedom, hope, and opportunity.
Eden's jewelry social enterprise provides dignified, stable long-term employment and economic empowerment for women and their families.
Each piece is inspired by the true story of a human trafficking survivor, reflecting their journey of hope and courage. Our design team works intimately with beneficiaries to help them express their story in the form of a jewelry design. Making jewelry also has therapeutic benefits. It is calming, restorative, and surrounds the women with beauty after so much darkness. When you purchase Eden jewelry, you invest in their empowerment and healing.
