The Petaluma Market Bag by the Apolis Bangladesh Project is the perfect bag to carry for travel, groceries, and everything else in between.
We love Apolis and their Global Citizen mentality. Their City Series gives Petaluma Home & Garden a chance to partner with Apolis to be help the initiative of their Local + Global Bangladesh Project. The project provides jobs to mothers in Bangladesh and also provides literacy classes, training on nutrition, women's legal rights, educational awareness and finance.
Description:
- Your Long-Lasting, Waterproof Bag: We believe you want a product of enduring quality, so this bag is made to last — it's strong enough to hold at least 135 pounds, and has a waterproof interior that's easy to wipe clean
- Your Bag Fights Landfills: This bag is resilient and reusable, so you can help keep single-use bags out of landfills; plus, it's made of natural jute fiber, which generates more oxygen than any other Bangladeshi crop
- Your Purchase Helps Break a Poverty Cycle: The female artisans who handcraft your bag receive Fair Trade wages, annual profit dividends, and a retirement fund.
