Arzu Studio Hope, founded by 2008 Skoll social entrepreneur Connie Duckworth, is leveraging its program to help another Skoll social entrepreneur, Paul Farmer, with his work with Partners in Health in Haiti. Arzu, which helps break the cycle of poverty in Afghanistan through its program to link Afghan rug sales in the developed world to education and development activities in Afghanistan, will donate 25 percent of each Arzu rug purchased through January to Partners of Health. It’s great to see a social entrepreneur with an income component in its program using that lever to help fund another social entrepreneur.
