Fostering self-sufficiency through the beauty of handmade crafts
Refugee women living in Colorado face many challenges, among them the often daunting task of achieving self-sufficiency. By forming a crafts collective, these remarkable women are pooling their talents, skills and creativity to earn money for themselves while adding a little beauty to the world.
The women of A Little Something enjoy making crafts that are as diverse as the group itself, including:
Weaving
Sewing
Crochet
Jewelry
Beads
Knitting
A Little Something is a crafts cooperative. Proceeds benefit the participants directly, with 75% of each sale going to the artist, and the other 25% going back into the business to purchase crafting supplies.
A Little Something items can be purchased at local craft fairs and community events. Check our calendar in the left menu for upcoming events, or go to our Facebook page.
This nonprofit endeavor is run by a dedicated team of volunteers. If you would like to assist with sorting supplies, working at events, or with any of the administrative tasks it takes to keep the co-op going, please give us a call!
