Tell It Well
Amy K. Wright is a photographer, and the creator of “Tell it Well” Photo Greeting Cards. When she started her business in 2016, she knew that she wanted to partner with the Whole Planet Foundation and use her business to empower women in poverty.
Having witnessed firsthand the work of Whole Planet Foundation while visiting India, she is passionate about partnering with other female entrepreneurs. Amy says:
“To put it very simply… a microloan = hope. And this hope offers a practical way for a woman in poverty to become an equal business partner with her husband; to feed and clothe her children and gain access to education – many of the basics in my life that I take for granted. Microloans empower those living in poverty to change their own lives, and that is why I support the work of the Whole Planet Foundation.”
Tell it Well now supports women entrepreneurs all over the world with 10% of sales. Available in 15 Whole Foods Market stores in the Denver/Boulder & Ft Collins Metro Area or buy on-line at www.tellitwellcards.com.
