I can't believe this is another thing I've never remember to blog about, because it's one of my Cameron Village favorites -
Beleza: A Fair Trade Boutique.
Described on their website as a place where:
...you will find unique and extraordinary textiles and hats, jewelry and art that catch your eye and touch your heart.
Beyond offering beautiful things, Beleza exists to provide hard working people from countries around the world – and here in the US – essential support to provide daily necessities for their families.
While the store is fair trade, the major emphasis of Beleza is to treat people as they should be treated, and assist in global economic development.Beleza is owned and operated by two of the most wonderful people I know:
P. Dail and his wife Sara.
I received the following email today from Sara about a new addition coming to their store that I am really excited about:
Recently we met Audias from Honduras. Born without arms, he paints with his feet. We will have his work in the store very soon and encourage you to come see this work. Audias has no other means of support. We plan to host a special event for you to meet him.I'll be sure to update when I hear more details!
In the mean time, go check out
Beleza and become an addict of their amazing selection of goods with a heart, too.
