Don't Miss This Special Event at Revive!

Saturday, November 25th, 1pm-4pm
Presentation by Ruth DeGolia, director of Mercado Global

Hear about developments with their partner cooperatives and what a difference fair trade can make in the lives of artisans and their families.

Mercado Global provides employment to more than 200 women cooperative members across Guatemala, Argentina, southern Mexico and Ecuador.

Ruth, a Cleveland Heights native, was named one of the “15 People Who Make America Great” by Newsweek Magazine and was featured on the cover of the magazine’s July 4th “Giving Back Awards” issue!


Featured Group


Global Mamas is a women's clothing co-op of 26 small businesses in Ghana, West Africa.   Over 150 people are given sustainable livelihoods by the production of these beautiful hand-made pieces.
Baby Onesie
Animal Tee
Reversible Dress

 Global Mamas use:

  • the ancient art of batik to color and dye their fabrics
  • tie dye technique and designs
  • hand-powered sewing machines allowing work during frequent power outages 

The "living wage" artisans receive is over 10 times Ghana’s minimum wage. Financial assistance through raw materials revolving loans leaves more proceeds for the women, promoting social equality and economic stability.

The Global Mamas products at Revive include:

  • onesies, T-shirts, rompers, dress shirts and dresses for kids
  • robes, tees, shirts and skirts for adults
  • jewelry, handbags and African spirit good luck charms
