FAQ: THE PRODUCTS

Does my purchase really make a difference?
Yes! Your purchase creates fair trade jobs on the ground, while covering costs for various educational platforms we’re creating for women and girls in Ethiopia.

Are these quality products?
Yes. Due to the nature of working with locally sourced materials and craftsmanship, products may vary slightly but all meet our standard quality control.

Can I return an item?
Absolutely! If you’re not satisfied, we’ll issue a credit, replace your item or offer a full refund – your choice.

FAQ: THE ORGANIZATION

Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes. Studio Samuel is a registered 501c3 organization with the IRS.

How is your 1Hundred Girls campaign connected to the product lines?
Sales from our product lines support many of the 1Hundred Girls initiatives.
Example:  educational platforms supported by your purchase fall under this category and range from literacy to occupational training to life skills initiatives.

Are you on the ground in Ethiopia or in the US?
Both. We have team members and board members in both Ethiopia and the US who work closely with our partners in the community. Our US team travels at least once a year to oversee initiatives and monitor progress.

How is funding handled for Board travel?
The Board is 100% volunteer-based, covering all costs out of pocket.

How are you different from most charities?
We operate as a business. As we grow our fair trade product lines, it is that income which will sustain and generate the opportunity on the ground. Purchasing power, not hand-outs.
