Our Shop
Empower International has a retail outlet at Shop 3, 112 Acland Street, St Kilda. Our shop is not-for-profit and fair trade. All our products have been carefully selected by us from small businesses offering training and employment to precious people needing an answer to poverty and injustice.
Our producers are mostly girls and women whose lives have been impacted by HIV/AIDS, human trafficking and abuse. Through rescue, rehabilitation, medical care and ongoing nurture and skill development, these people have been able to turn their lives around and a new future has been established.
All our products are hand-made and showcase great skill, ingenuity and creativity. We aim for excellence in all we do to honour all of our producers.
Please Contact Us for further information.
