Saturday, November 20th from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. and Sunday, November 21st from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at Truckee Donner PUD Board Room.
At our Alternative Holiday/Christmas Faire you will be able to purchase beautiful Asante products.
ASANTE means Thank you in Swahili. There is an adage that goes something like this: “If you want to make someone independent, don’t just give her a fish; teach her how to fish.” The Asante Network knows of women in Tanzania and Uganda who have not only learned how to fish, but have nets, already filled with fish. The “fish” in their nets are hand-woven baskets, beautiful textile products and other unique crafts. These women aren’t asking for a handout. However, they do need a helping hand. What they have need of is someone willing to find and develop a market in which they can sell their products. Click here to download a flier.
