MADE FREE® Information

The MADE FREE® model was designed to provide sustainable social reform - addressing the root cause of slavery (including human trafficking), poverty and the need for sustainable ethical jobs. Handouts of food, clothing, and water may help today, but don’t necessarily change the circumstances for tomorrow. To win the war on poverty, we need to address the core issues. For poverty to end, those who make our fashion need to make a livable wage. Every purchase supports a day of freedom from human trafficking, slavery and poverty through a self-sustaining job. Providing a dignified, and empowered pathway out of extreme poverty while reducing the risk of being trafficked or enslaved. Every item is made in a factory that meets or exceeds the World Fair Trade Organizations (WFTO) standards. Today, there are over 750 million people living in poverty*, many work in South Asia’s fast growing apparel industry. There are 40 million slaves in the world. 40% live in India. 70% are females.** According to The World Bank* and The 2016 Global Slavery Index** MISSION: One million people to be made free through self-sustaining jobs. Every purchase you make gives hope and opportunity for a life made free.
