About the founder
A Few Words from Guisela Pinto - Founder
We have a passion for helping others, and we believe that empowering women, both abroad and locally, can alleviate many of the problems society faces today.
Divas Fair Trade offers something that a typical shopping experience does not: unique gifts with purpose. Buyers can have confidence that a significant percentage of their purchase goes directly to the artisans and farmers who created them, worldwide.
Purchasing fair trade products marks a distinguished path toward equality, sustainability, and positive change. This direct and non-discriminatory relationship helps artisans, families, and communities become self-sufficient. We provide a marketplace for fair trade products and crafts, enabling artisans and farmers to improve their lives. They are given the tools to invest time and money in their talents, land, families, community, health, and education.
Our fair trade journey began in 2002. Having the opportunity to travel and visit many places, including our native Peru, has allowed us to do something very special: educate the communities where we live and work about the impact of our purchasing decisions.
A portion of our profits funds interest-free microloan programs that benefit people worldwide, primarily women and children, to start their own entrepreneurial projects or access the education they need to progress. We invest in education and in people.
We are committed to the 9 PRINCIPLES OF FAIR TRADE as stipulated by the Fair Trade Federation.
