When you go into business and want to be socially conscience, it is amazing the true inspirations you find out there to learn from! Squash Clothing went to Outdoor Retailer last week-a trade show for the outdoor market, but also a good place to meet with fabric suppliers, etc. to find fun new prints for our tunics. So while I was sitting at a table talking with a fabric supplier, this women walks by and drops a pair of fleece mittens in my hand. I did not really look at them until I got home. The company was MoJo, stands for Moms and Jobs. 27% of single moms live below the poverty line. MoJo products help create sustainable employment opportunities in the apparel manufacturing sector for moms in need. MoJo provides skills training, competitive wages, free quality childcare, and other benefits to this under served demographic. WOW!
