Grant Six | Sitti Social Enterprise

Bringing fair wage employment to refugee women through handmade natural olive oil soap empowering them to gain financial independence for themselves and also for their families. Each bar of soap that they produce is a testament to the self-determination of the women who make up the Sitti Soap team.

When events were cancelled across Canada they were very affected as many customers purchase their beautiful soap for wedding favours.

Since the pandemic they have been working hard to help on the ground to support refugees both with securing partnerships to ensure they continue not just to keep everyone employed but thinking of ways to maximize their impact on the ground. Today with World Refugee Day they see that 1% of the global world population have been forcibly displaced or are refugees. Advocating for the marginalized those that lost everything they have seems so much more essential than ever.
