Our mission is to alleviate poverty worldwide by helping artisans in developing countries find a greater world market for their products.
We use 100% of the profits from these sales to fund meaningful humanitarian projects, especially in education.

The artisans we try to help are:
- Artisans who have limited access to markets
- Artisan groups that work toward educating women and girls
- Artisans in distressed areas
- Handicapped or otherwise marginalized artisans

Elevita is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with 100% volunteer management.
