ConnectHer introduces "micro-entrepreneur / micro-business starter kits".
If you would like to get set up with a $100 to $500 kit to sell consisting of beautiful handmade product by Palestinian women micro-entrepreneurs, please email laylaazure@yahoo.com to get started (put connecther in the subject line please).
100 % of your sales from the kits will go to our collective fund toward starting or supporting businesses for women Palestinian micro-entrepreneur artisans. Some samples of product included in the kit are on the slideshow below. The kits are being purchased by people in the U.S. who will then sell the kit contents (all products made by women Palestinian micro-entrepreneurs) to their personal and professional social network, here in the U.S. (via church groups, get togethers, etc.).
Please join our inclusive group to help support job creation in the West Bank and Gaza which we think will spur peace and dignity. ConnectHer aims to engage Buddhists, Christians, Hindus, Jews, Muslims and all who want to support peace in the West Bank and Gaza through creating jobs and dignity for people. ConnectHer has partnered with PCWF, an established organization which has been helping Palestinians in need, by creating jobs and funding projects which help the children of Palestine. ConnectHer aims to help them expand their reach by focusing on setting up micro-businesses for women entrepreneurs and helping market and sell the products these beautiful women make.

This spreadsheet will track purchases so we can know, collectively, how many women micro-entrepreneurs in Palestine that we can set up with new businesses.

The products will be sent back for us to market and sell.
