On Sunday, December 3, 2023, volunteers for Concern America will be here at Irvine United Congregational Church with a Craft Sale featuring unique, quality handcrafts that provide us with the opportunity to purchase ethically. This year we have many new beautifully handcrafted textiles, ceramics, and wood products from Bangladesh, El Salvador, Guatemala and Mexico that honor indigenous traditions. When a Concern America product is purchased, we are providing a source of income to materially impoverished communities while allowing artisans to achieve financial stability through gainful, safe, and dignified work.

Concern America is an international development organization based in Santa Ana, CA that builds capacity in health care, clean water, education, and economic opportunities. You may learn more about their work and view a selection of their crafts available on their web site: www.concernamerica.org
