From Rural Hands to Global Hearts — How Powered by Women Supports Local Artisans.

"From rural Sri Lanka to homes across the UK — handcrafted stories that travel far."

Behind every brushstroke, woven thread, or sculpted pot lies a story — of tradition, culture, and resilience. At Powered by Women, we believe those stories deserve to be seen, celebrated, and supported. Which is why we’ve created a powerful initiative to uplift rural artisans and bring their work to the world stage.

"Art that travels, impact that stays."

Through our ongoing project, we purchase handmade products directly from local creators — including drawings, pottery, woven items, and other unique handicrafts — and help them find a new market in the UK. This not only gives visibility to their talents but provides them with a steady and dignified income stream.

Creating Global Markets for Rural Dreams.

Many of these rural artisans come from communities where opportunities are limited. Their skills — passed down from generations — often go unnoticed or underpriced in local markets.

Local talent, global vision — artisans at work in rural communities."

By establishing a UK-facing market, we’re helping them:

• Earn fair prices for their products

• Reach global customers who value handmade, ethical goods

• Gain economic independence without needing to leave their villages

  
  

This isn’t charity. This is commerce with purpose — and the impact is real.

10% That Builds a Better Tomorrow.

What makes this initiative even more meaningful is that 10% of every purchase is reinvested into rural infrastructure development. That means when someone buys a pot, painting, or craft, they’re not only supporting the artist — they’re contributing to better roads, clean water, schools, and public spaces in rural areas.

"10% of every purchase goes toward rural development — a future built together."

It’s a cycle of empowerment:

• Art supports income

• Income supports communities

• Communities grow stronger

  
  

Powered by Women isn’t just helping sell products.We’re helping build futures.

Why It Matters?

When you empower local creators, you're doing more than supporting a craft — you're:

• Keeping cultural heritage alive

• Creating sustainable rural economies

• Giving women, elders, and youth the chance to thrive in their hometowns.

  
  

We’re proud to be a platform that doesn’t just tell stories of impact — we help write them, hand in hand with the people who inspire us.
