Through sales of their products, more than 2,100 artisans have access to adult literacy classes, health clinics, childcare programs, a primary school, and carpet-weaving training program. Hundreds of graduates are able to earn a livelihood or establish their own workshops, and the artisans in Kathmandu also provide care for homeless children.
SERRV international is one of the first fair trade organizations in the world.
