A Look Back for Giving Tuesday: What We’ve Accomplished

Joffa exists to make it easier to do what you’re already doing — making socially conscious shopping decisions while finding quality items you actually want to buy.

As a former missionary, Brandon Wells saw other nonprofits struggle to expand their reach and connect with customers despite crafting beautiful, quality products.

Conceived to bridge the gap between maker and buyer, Joffa helps nonprofit and fair trade retailers scale their businesses so that they can scale their impact in their own communities.

With Giving Tuesday around the corner and Thanksgiving season upon us, we wanted to share a heartfelt thank you for all that you’ve made possible!

Because of you, we’ve been able to support 38 partners spanning several areas of impact including – poverty, women's empowerment, children's education, adult education and skill development, homelessness, domestic abuse, trafficking and exploitation, community development, cultural preservation, and environmental initiatives.

Empowerment is at the heart of what we do. Joffa exists to empower nonprofit and sustainable fair trade retailers around the world, who empower their artisans and makers, who in turn empower their own communities. Our vision is that this ripple effect will extend across every continent and find its way to every community in need. And YOU empower US to continue on this mission.

When you gift from Joffa your gift keeps giving and you do good with every dollar you spend – but you can head to our donation page if you’d like to contribute directly to Joffa.

Joffa is a 501(c)3 nonprofit artisan marketplace. That means your donations go toward the operation of Joffa and make it possible for us to partner with other nonprofit and fair trade retailers – and that means artisans in underserved and marginalized communities around the world feel the direct impact of your gift!

All funds are used to sustain the Joffa marketplace, which helps nonprofits and fair trade retailers scale their businesses and increase their impact on people's lives around the world.
