About Nest:

Founded in 2006 by Rebecca Kousky, Nest is a nonprofit organization that empowers female artisans around the world. Using a unique combination of interest-free microfinance loans, mentoring from established designers, as well as a market in which to sell their crafts, Nest helps its loan recipients create successful small businesses. Nest instills pride of ownership, preserves ancient artistic traditions and successfully moves women from poverty to self-sufficiency.

Our unique microbartering approach and commitment to ethical sourcing allow us to act as a collaborator with women artisans rather than simply consumers or importers. We have worked with women-owned microenterprises around the world – from Togo to India to the Dominican Republic, and most recently in our own backyard – New York City.
