Happy 5th birthday to us!
We’re honoured to be able to support and advocate for our refugee and migrant community for the last 5 years. It all started from a humble Instagram account, to later become a social enterprise that bridges the gap between refugee-owned businesses and the general public. We’re deeply thankful to our merchant partners for sharing their profound stories so we can all continue to learn from, elevate and celebrate their voices.
