The Tote Project

Co-founders Fay Grant and Michelle Chavez are both activists in the fight of human trafficking. They founded The Tote Project that makes fair trade totes and pouches that are sewn in India by women who have made the choice to journey out of the sex trade and into freedom. They also donate 20% of their profits to Two Wings to help survivors of human trafficking in the United States pursue their dreams.
