In 2008, Rachel and I got married and moved to Ethiopia. While there, we encountered extraordinary beauty, and extraordinary poverty. We met women from the commercial sex industry who told us “we are grateful for charity, but we need a job.” And so, ABLE was conceived as a genuine solution to poverty, creating jobs for women who had overcome extraordinary challenges. 15 years later, Rachel and I have 4 daughters, and we recently took our first trip back with the whole family. It was the most meaningful trip of my life, seeing through their eyes the good work you have supported over the years through your purchase. I’d love you to see this quick video we put together sharing about our trip and hearing from two of the women who own and lead our manufacturing partners in Addis Ababa.
