EP 50: Holly Wehde, Owner & CEO of Trades of Hope
About Holly (from Holly):
My calling is to empower people to be all God created them to be. This starts with my five children and my husband of over 29 years.
I am a visionary, a church planter, pastor’s wife, speaker, and Missional Entrepreneur. Whether it’s ministering to the hurting, starting Trades of Hope, mentoring leaders or helping marriages and families, my passion is helping people live with passion and purpose.
Trades of Hope helps women in desperate places by selling their fair trade products through the party plan model. This creates a dignified partnership empowering women out of the sex industry, slums and sweatshops and extreme poverty
From the heartbreaking slums of Haiti to the hidden slums of Costa Rica, I’ve traveled many places and seen poverty’s devastating effects. I’ve listened to stories of young victims trapped in the sex industry, heard the grumbling pains of hungry bellies, and seen distraught mothers drop off their own children at orphanages because they had no way to provide for them. In the midst of these poverty stricken communities, Trades of Hope has brought hope and a solution to end the cycle of poverty through job creation.
