REMEDY - Women Entrepreneur Program
Ethos + Co. has partnered with Kiva, one of the first socially responsible lending organisations, in the endeavour to help women start new ethical / eco-friendly and sustainable businesses, and continually grow them.
This program is called REMEDY, and is our way of giving back to the heart and soul of disadvantaged communities. We have chosen women as our main beneficiaries, to help enabling women to have financial freedom, to raise their children and growth their communities, as a whole.
Ethos + Co. is dedicated to pledging 5% of all profits to our REMEDY program in order to help women entrepreneurs in Asia, Africa, Central America, Middle East, North America, Asia-Pacific, South America and more. Reaching in excess of 80 countries, thanks to Kiva.
