Holiday Giving to all ARC Members!

This Holiday Season, as a thank you to all members of the ARC Community for their participation, we have teamed up with Shea Yeleen International to offer a 10% discount on all Shea Yeleen International shea butter products.

Shea Yeleen International's (SYI) mission is to promote sustainable economic development and empower women in rural West Africa through organizing and training women owned cooperatives to produce, market, and sell high quality shea butter. Shea Yeleen's latest project is a partnership with the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota to design an improved shea butter mixer. Shea Yeleen's Make a Mixer Project is a tool that will replace the tedious and burdensome step of mixing shea paste by hand and will allow women to produce more shea butter in less time. For more information on this important project: http://www.sheayeleen.org/mixer.html

SYI is a wonderful example of a small project, using technology and community-based support to provide the tools that allow members of a rural community to improve their lives. In support of our shared mission and goals, Shea Yeleen is now offering all members of the ARC community a special promotional discount to their products. All proceeds will go directly to the market women producing these goods.

We have sent everyone who has an ARC account a discount code for these wonderful shea butter products.  Sign up now and email us if you are interested in recieving this code!
