The Root Collective // A Start-Up that Gives Back

Aired, Wednesday, May 7, 2014. Episode 92

Bethany Tran started The Root Collective as a side project to help artisans get their incredible hand-made products to a greater market. She works with artists from across the globe and is showing the fashion industry that being conscious of where our products are made and who is making them is important to the buyer. The Root Collective helps buyers impact a life, a family, a generation of people who live in a developing nation and these purchases help change lives. Bethany talks about how important it is for us to connect with the products we buy and realize that there are people behind them.
