About this organization
Mission
Ten by Three, formerly known as The Blessing Basket Project®, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that believes the rural poor in developing countries are quite capable of pulling themselves out of poverty. We use a financial model that allows artisans to earn significantly higher than fair trade wages for their handicraft product. Our mission is achieved when the artisan uses their Prosperity Wages® to graduate from our program into a life of sustainable financial independence. Ten by Three serves in Ghana, Uganda, Indonesia, Madagascar, Bangladesh, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, and Togo.
About
