Amani Matabaro

Amani translated means Peace... This is one of the reasons we decided to call our fair trade program the Peace Exchange.  Mr. Amani Matabaro is a leader in eastern Congo who has dedicated his life to helping others.  A well educated man who speaks seven languages, Amani is one talented individual!  After losing both of his parents in the war, Amani is committed to creating a better life for his wife and 5 children.  The Matabaro family started a non-profit called ABFEK that works with Action Kivu.  Together they created the sewing workshops where The Peace Exchange fair trade program exists today.  We are so honored to work with good people and quality organizations.  Next week Amani arrives in California for special events and speaking engagements.  Stay tuned for a chance to connect with a man who has a heart to help the world.  Those of us at the Peace Exchange hope you can come out to meet him... It will be life changing.  Guaranteed!
