EMPOWERING

Women

By Mae Mañacap-Johnson

West African women who harvest shea nut, an ingredient found in Kumani products, benefit from fair-trade organizations that provide fair living wages.

“Women do 66 percent of world’s work, produce 50 percent of
world’s food, earn 10 percent of world’s income and own one
percent of the world’s property.”
– Former U.S. President Bill Clinton at the Clinton Global Initiative
