You may remember seeingThe Tote Projectin my25 Ethical Brands that Give Backpost on the blog. It’s a pretty popular list, and I can’t think of a brandmoredeserving to be on the cover!
reasons to love the tote project
Giving Back: This is why Fay Grant & Michelle Chavez founded the project! Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery, and there are currently over 20 million victims worldwide (a number too hard to fathom). The Tote Project donates 10% of gross profits to Two Wings to support survivors of human trafficking in the US. Plus, they partner with factories thatsupportwomen survivors.
Ethically-Made: Every tote is handmade by Oasis Bags in a sustainable factory in India from fair-trade certified cotton. These factoriesare dedicatedto empowering women in the city of Kolkata. The pouchesare madeby Freeset, a fair trade freedom business offering employment to women escaping West Bengal’s sex trade.
Inspiring Illustrations: It’s always tricky to pick a favorite from their collections. They have so many beautiful prints, and they seem to get sweeter with each collection. Each comes complete with an inspirational tagline, such as ‘free to love’.
what i’m using
Free to Grow Veggies Tote: Thisis my new grocery bag, and it makes for a great on-the-go shopping list 😉 I love the size of their new totes. You can fit a few days’ worth of groceries in here. The weather hasn’t been great for our last few farmer’s markets, but I’ll take this sweet thing with me next time!
Freeto Dream Palm Trees Pouch: It’s hard to pass any image up with palm trees. Elliott and I have been going to the beach for at least 30 minutes daily to get outdoors and dig our toes into the sand. This pouch keeps all our little beach essentials sand-free for us 😀
