Aid to Artisans is an international non profit which blends a passion for the deep-rooted cultures of developing world artisans with a commitment to creating new opportunities for their handmade businesses.

Over 30,000 artisans a year participate in ATA’s unique, empowering blend of product design, business training and marketing.

The collaborative relationships between ATA and its artisan partners can be measured monetarily, with over $30 million in retail sales of artisan goods leveraged annually- much of it in new, demanding markets in the US and Europe.

But our results can also be measured by the impact of the additional income earned. Artisans invest in health and education for their families, in strengthening their businesses, and in the economic vitality of their communities. Through ATA’s work, jobs are created, houses built, children fed and educated, and most importantly, hope, pride and optimism are restored.
