Fonthill, ON March 05, 2013 -- What better way to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8th than by buying, wearing and giving a beautiful scarf or piece of jewelry handcrafted by a woman in a developing country and made available in North America by Jolica.
"I am inspired every day by the strong, visionary women we have the privilege to partner with through Jolica," said Darlene Loewen, Co-Founder and President. "Talented, hard working women who are committed to creating beautiful pieces, improving their children's lives and uplifting their communities."
Jolica's handcrafted, Fair Trade jewelry, scarves and handbags can be purchased through independent Gift Consultants and on line.
