Each year, Forai walks alongside 8-12 refugee and immigrant women on the artisan/artisan-admin team and 20-30 women participating in community sewing classes. Forai works to foster dignity and help these women’s stories be heard. We help empower them economically with income earned from their work. And Forai creates a community, a space where women from different backgrounds and cultures mutually give and receive.

Every purchase of artisan-made jewelry and textiles provides a fair wage and ongoing empowerment. Still, many women arrive at our workshop while living below the poverty line with almost no English. Donations enable us to onboard new women into our empowerment program. Learn more here.

Our Circles of Unity jewelry in gold or silver is a great place to begin celebrating their strength and yours while honoring the unity of our shared humanity.

Forai, Inc., is a faith-based, Christian 501(c)3 organization partnering with local refugee and immigrant women to enable the realization of economic, educational, and social goals through training and peer support, and by expanding market opportunities for artisans.
