Our Mission

The Bootstrap Project is a non-profit organization. Our mission is to create a sustainable platform to promote and retain centuries-old crafts and customs. By joining Bootstrap you allow artisans—who act as the catalyst for their whole communities—to take pride in their culture and end their own poverty. It’s trade not aid.



Join the movement, become a change agent – one purchase, one artisan, one village at a time.
