Coconut Shell Nativity
Coconut Shell Nativity

The Coconut Shell Nativity is both traditional and unique. If you're looking to create a rustic holiday aesthetic in your home, this is just the piece for you! Despite one of the world's highest disability rates, due in part to injuries from landmines leftover from years of war, there are few opportunities for Cambodians with disabilities to find work or learn skills to support themselves. Rehab Craft Cambodia trains people with disabilities in handicraft production, provides career opportunities and pays fair wages.

THE MAKERS

Rehab Craft Cambodia (RCC) is a nonprofit, nongovernmental organization developed to create employment for Cambodians with disabilities. Many Cambodians are disabled due to injuries from land mines left after the war; land mines are still a major problem in the country. RCC recognizes the obstacles these Cambodians face and gives them skills to create a successful and meaningful business. Since people with disabilities have historically had few opportunities for training or employment, RCC does not hire on the basis of education or job experience. Instead, the organization is dedicated to providing training and opportunities for advancement within the company. RCC pays fair wages for skilled work; its artisans earn two and one-half to three times the average factory–production wage. Ten Thousand Villages has been buying from Rehab Craft Cambodia since 2006.
