HHPLIFT creates opportunities for people overcoming barriers to fair wage employment and economic independence. Through HHP, they partner with global employment social enterprises and help introduce their products to new distribution channels so they can develop sustainable business models and provide fair wages and valuable services to their artisans and workers. Products include bags, accessories, and housewares made from natural and recycled materials like fishing nets, cement bags, bicycle chain links, leather scraps, plastic bags, palm thread, and more. Through LIFT, they provide direct employment, leadership training, and career development services for disadvantaged adults in Chicago, produce bath and spa products, and offer warehousing, order fulfillment, and other third party logistics (3PL) services. They ship in compostable packaging and offer special 3PL rates for nonprofits and social enterprises. HHPLIFT is part of the Social Enterprise Alliance, Chicago Fair Trade, and The Aspen Institute. They are registered as a not-for-profit organization and reinvest all surplus towards their mission.
