Linden Baker & Melissa Sevy co-founded a business which empowers artisans in developing countries who make indigenous handcraft which is sold to customers in the United States. Before they started this venture, all their efforts were in a similar non-profit called Musana International. But then they scaled up that concept to start Fair Kind, which is a for-profit.

We talk about the pros and cons of non-profit vs for-profit ventures. While Linden and Melissa have enjoyed the perks of both models over the years, they’ve seen how their for-profit has the greatest impact and sustainability. Find out why on this episode of Un-Uninformed.
