The Story Behind Our 'Hope Grows Here' Collection

We are so excited to have launched our exclusive HOPE GROWS HERE Merchandise Collection in support of the Mustard Seed Edmonton’s Employment program!

100% of the net profits will benefit Edmonton’s Employment Program, which helps people find purposeful, dignifying work, and financial stability.

“Finding a job can be difficult or stressful for most people but becomes even more challenging when someone has barriers, such as a significant gap in employment, a criminal record, mental health challenges, or has unstable housing,” says Eric, Employment Manager at The Mustard Seed Edmonton (pictured above).

In order to address these barriers, our employment coaches take the time “to understand each participant’s current circumstances and then work alongside the individual to form a personalized action plan. By loving each person, building trust, and having honest conversations, we are able to help participants to address the obstacles that may be in the way.”

The Employment Program provides life-changing skills and opportunities to those in need, as Noah* a past participate said:

“Words cannot express how grateful I am that programs like these exist. These services have helped me move on from a very dark point in my past and once again become a functioning, contributing member of society and continue to help me succeed. Thanks for everything.”

Thanks to your generous support of our ‘Hope Grows Here’ Collection, together we can help more people like Noah find meaningful, sustainable employment.

You can see the full collection and pre-order your merchandise here! Pre-orders end on April 15th.
