The purpose of Edun Live is to offer companies and consumers the chance to trade both ethically and competitively. It helps provide jobs in Sub-Saharan Africa and funding for AIDS research. From the fields where the cotton is picked to the final stitch, all products are 100% African, meaning economic and social benefits of the products stay in Africa.
