Milagros is a social enterprise developed
by Gracia, an NGO based in the United States.
All Milagros products are
produced at the Milagros Workroom, located in the Casa Hogar, a home in rural Guatemala. The Milagros artisans have backgrounds of multi- generational poverty, abuse and/or abandonment. They are isolated and lack the income, employable skills, economic opportunity, or social network to create better futures. With dedication and belief in themselves, they learn to make and market their hand-crafted jewelry and accessories. As products are sold, income is earned, and confidence grows. They move away from the uncertainty of their past and toward a more secure future. Each piece of Milagros’ jewelry carries the pure silver fingerprint of the young woman who made it. Milagros jewelry uses pure silver giving
it a unique brilliance. Uncoated, vegetable dyed leather, sterling silver findings, semi-precious and natural stones are also used.
