Foothold Market

Foothold Market Makers from Appalachia to Africa: A Market with a global purpose. Foothold Soaps are hand-made with only essential, wholesome products.

These soaps are made by hand and support Foothold International as they work to provide clean water & sanitation to Kenya, East Africa. Visit our website at www.footholdinternational.org

Our ladies group, the Namelok Ladies told us, “The word Namelok means “something sweet” in the Masai language.” In the shadow of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Kenya, East Africa, the Namelok women’s group chose the name bec

ause they said, “Where God is, you will find something sweet.”

Through the provision of a microloan, the women started a soap-making business, providing affordable soap to their community and donating soap to local school children. While this soap was made in the USA, your purchase directly supports the Namelok women’s group and helps to start more groups like Namelok to empower vulnerable women and provide affordable, sustainable resources to prevent life-threatening diseases in rural indigenous communities in East Africa.

Creatively Handmade in Kenya with a purpose.

Our banana leaf creations are some of the most unique pieces in Foothold Market: handcrafted from sustainably-sourced banana leaves by skilled Kenyan artisans. Each animal, bicycle, boat, and village scene tells a story of resourcefulness, tradition, and beautiful craftsmanship.

These pieces are fair trade, eco-friendly, and full of personality.

They also carry a deeper purpose. Every purchase helps support Foothold’s mission to prevent human trafficking through education, health, clean water, menstrual care, and community support in Kenya.

When you shop these handmade treasures, you’re bringing home something beautiful & you’re helping create safer futures.

Stop in and see them in person at Foothold Market. 💛
