Angeles Anonimos: Creating Fair-Trade Jewelry with Peru's Disabled
by Jasmin Malik Chua, Jersey City, USA on 10.23.07

Sponsored by Fair Indigo and produced by StoryBridge, this video profiles Angeles Anonimos (Anonymous Angels), a Lima, Peru-based group that trains the disabled and handicapped—regarded by locals as unemployable and often left to beg on the streets—to create fair-trade sterling silver jewelry.
When asked about the origin of the group's name, co-founder Maria Elena says, "Anyone who buys jewelry from us is an anonymous angel." ::StoryBridge





















How noble.
Jewelry fundraising is successful also because you are selling something that is fashion jewelry and it looks nice but it is supporting the cause. Many people that purchase the jewelry do because they might be suffering from the cause, know someone, or have a family member that is suffering.
