Via EcoChic Weddings, I was inspired by the story of goodwill and goods by Bodanna Studio, a New York non-profit that uplifts inner city kids through the art of pottery. Using the pottery enterprise as a real-life classroom, youth develop creativity, discipline and a strong work ethic while handcrafting ceramics and operating all aspects of the business,
from product design and development, production, sales and marketing to shipping. 100% of the proceeds of every sale support Bodanna's
mission of empowering youth through enterprise. What a great business model! The product is gorgeous and thoughtful!
