"We're really excited to be able to get together in person and celebrate everything we do here at the Little Market and also all of those people who have gathered around us and supported us," Conrad expresses, with Skvarla adding,"We really wanted to throw a celebration because of that, to bring together both the women who make the products, the community who supports us, and some of the incredible sponsors that support our work so we're really excited about this.

Striving to uplift and support others, the women don't take salaries, instead letting the funds get reinvested into the artisans and their communities. "When we started The Little Market eight years ago, we really wanted to find a way to support women all over the world. That's just become increasingly important to us over the years, especially after both of us have become mothers because we understand that when you're supporting women you're also supporting their children," Conrad details."We came up with the concept of The Little Market because we didn't want to do a charity. We didn't want to do donations.

Skvarla adds,"When women have access to their own income, have sustainable income opportunities, the cycle of poverty breaks and then they are able to invest in themselves and their communities. It really has a ripple effect…and it's a really powerful thing."
