About Us - Our Story
Share
Hey there! I'm Beth, and I'm currently living and working overseas. My life's work is to help disadvantaged women who cannot work outside their homes, to make money and transform their lives. It's been amazing to see how many of my friends have experienced financial independence for the first time, thanks to this project!
My husband and I do not have any personal financial gain from this, and the knitters are making three to four times more than they would on their own. We reinvest all of the profits back into the project, which is helping to aid in the growth of their community. Currently, we're collaborating with 70 incredibly talented Turkish women from lower-income neighborhoods, who produce amazing hand-knit stockings.
For the first three years, my husband and I were reluctant to share this part of YarnProj's story, because we didn't want any sympathy purchases and the reputation of inferior products sometimes associated with social causes. However, after several years of establishing great 5-star reviews and feedback of quick delivery, we are excited to share the transformational mission of YarnProj!
Through your purchase, you are helping to transform families and giving women hope, for the first time in their lives. Thank you!
