We want to bring handmade luxury to you and your home. Unique and one-of-a-kind items of the best quality that you can’t find anywhere else. We want to showcase the exquisite handcrafts coming out of East Africa. Giving you an opportunity to see some of the amazing things that otherwise doesn’t make it to the Australian nor international market. We want to give you the opportunity to support a local artisan for their skilled and talented work. By supporting the makers directly you are providing them with a pathway out of poverty not only for themselves but for their entire families. On top of it all, 10% of our profits are donated directly to Australia for Cedar Tanzania. This organisation supports projects that reduces poverty and provides quality healthcare in sub-Saharan Africa.

At Tender Funerals, we believe funerals and funeral care should be meaningful, authentic, and affordable. Tender Funerals Perth is a not-for-profit funeral service ensuring everyone, particularly people experiencing financial hardship/distress, can access personalised, meaningful and affordable funerals. Every person is unique, and their funeral should reflect this. We provide a range of services across after death care, funeral/celebration arrangements and body disposal options – many based on sustainable principles – which enable you to have a much greater say in how your loved one is treated after death. A community venture, we operate in ways they do not leave community members with large debt. We don’t take shortcuts and always put people and relationships first. We encourage practices that promote healing, including participating in any aspects of the funeral processes. Or, should you prefer, we can care for your loved one on your behalf.

The Cariad Project is a Perth-based social enterprise that creates meaningful opportunities for children to give back while supporting their local community experiencing homelessness, hardship and marginalisation. Through hands-on programs such as Baking a Difference, children as young as three take part in interactive workshops where they create baked goods that are gifted to local support services. Each experience is paired with age-appropriate learning through story, art, and gentle conversation, helping children build empathy, understanding, and a sense of social responsibility. While the baked goods provide immediate care to young people in need, the lasting impact of The Cariad Project is the compassion, confidence, and community spirit being nurtured in the next generation.

We provide a safe entry to the workplace for people living with a disability, with an emphasis on inclusion and equality across our whole workforce. Providing meaningful employment empowers our supported employees with opportunities that they are unlikely to have in open employment. Work for many of our team not only gives someone a sense or worth it provides social connections that many do not have outside of the work environment. What does success look like to you? Success for us is to make sure an individual performs to the best they can to achieve their goals. This could be as simple as learning a new technique, operate a piece of machinery or to work towards gaining open employment with other organisations.
