BEWEBOX
Backbone. Emerging. Weaving. Empowering.
Take part of Native Women Lead's BEWE Box! Each year the organization produces seasonal care packages in partnership with Native women entrepreneurs to demonstrate the importance and impact of Self-care and the Indigenous Creative and Circular Economy.
The dream is to turn these boxes into monthly subscription boxes to support as many authentic Native and Women owned businesses as possible throughout Turtle Island and eventually, Indigenous businesses abroad.
