Celebrate women all week at Villages of Austin

This year, International Women’s Day is March 8.  At Ten Thousand Villages of Austin, we will be celebrating the economic, political and social acheivements of women around the world and in our own community all week long!

The majority of our beautifully handmade items in the store are made by women artisans, and your purchase directly benefits women and their families in developing countries around the world.  This week, we will host benefit nights each night to benefit fellow nonprofit organizations in Austin.

Come join us in the store and support women right here in Austin and around the world!
