Ghana: Trade Aid Integrated
The Upper East region is the most impoverished area of Ghana, with 90% of the people living below the poverty line. Trade Aid Integrated is a non-profit organization created to find employment for the rural poor of northern Ghana. Generations of women from 17 different communities near Bolgatonga, the provincial capital, have learned to weave the distinctive and brightly-colored bolga baskets, using sturdy elephant grass, which grows along rivers and streams, and other natural fibers. Over 250 basket makers benefit from the services offered by Trade Aid including professional training, marketing outlets, raw material accessibility, and management skills.
