Hope for Haiti and
Africa Appeal - Malawiand are concepts conceived out of the desire to assist
with empowerment programmes within the Caribbean and in Africa.
Companies joining this project will commit to donating
a percentage of sales to assist with the project of their choice.
Much interest has been shown and there are a wide
range of companies serious about helping. They include a variety
of homemade products such as natural condiments, herbal health products,
arts and crafts. Products range will include items in the culinary
line such as pepper sauce, BBQ sauce, fish and chicken seasoning.
All products are a 100% natural with no added preservatives
In the herbal health line will be
indigenous herbal teas, natural soaps, spices, organic juices, oils,
healing salve, facial scrubs and body creams to name but a few!
Within the arts and craft line products range from
hand made pottery, batik silk printing, patchwork and prints as
well as some original oil paintings from around the Caribbean.
These products are 100% Bajan made by female entrepreneurs
to empower women in Malawi.
Mission Malawi will gain financial support through
these products to continue training and supporting women and children.
The initial product lines will be finalized and
marketing will commence on Ramona's return from Malawi the end of
March 2006.
Once the product line has been finalized product
testing will be carried out in different customer environments.
We are hoping to familiarise customers with products
by holding sample days in retail stores, market gardens, churches
and other venues.
With these results in mind we aim to put our product
line in retail stores across Barbados and within the tourism sector
as well as online.
Our vision is:
To have one retail market where products can reach
the consumer directly and donations can get to the projects swiftly
with minimal administrative charges and maximum transparency through
the internet.
