The CNN Freedom Project Features GoodWeave

We have been a proud member of GoodWeave for some time now.  For those of you that don't know, GoodWeave is the international nonprofit organization that works to end child labor in the carpet industry and to offer educational opportunities to children in South Asia.  Through the GoodWeave certification process, we are not only sure that the work on our rugs is being done in decent conditions, but also that we are contributing to the education of the workers and their families.

The CNN Freedom Project recently aired a story highlighting GoodWeave's innovative market-based solution to child labor.  We highly recommend that you take a few minutes and watch this story.  We all need to be educated consumers.
