HIFA is delighted to receive a further donation of £2000 from One Village.

One Village is a retailer and wholesaler of craft made functional articles for the home. It works directly with community organizations in some of the most economically stretched parts of the world, with the purpose of building up the social wellbeing of communities.

One Village achieves this through encouraging creative cooperatives and by pursuing an alternative approach to marketing, rooted in principles of solidarity towards a more equitable and just world order.
