We are passionate about creating safe and purposeful dolls and have established THE Ọ̀RẸ́MI STANDARD to ensure that we are getting the highest quality goods into the hands of your little ones. With this standard, we make sure that our products:
IMPACT A BLACK CHILD
For every doll purchased, we donate 10% of our profit to charities that improve minority access to quality education, and empower Black children through mentorship, scholarship, and leadership. Visit the section BRIDGING THE GAP to learn more about the organizations we support.
ECO-FRIENDLY AND SAFETY TESTED
- Every doll is handmade with 100% natural cotton of premium quality and is safety tested. Our dolls meet or exceed US safety standards and requirements.
- Our cotton yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, which guarantees they are made with eco-friendly dyes and are nontoxic. So you can rest assured while your little one is cuddled up with our irresistibly soft dolls.
- Our books are Climate Neutral Certified and printed on 100% FSC certified paper using non-petrolatum, soy-based inks that are renewable and biodegradable.
PROVIDE FAIR-TRADE EMPLOYMENT
Our dolls and goods are handmade with love by artisans all over the globe!
Our ankara fabrics are locally sourced and crafted into beautiful goods by highly-skilled artisans in Nigeria. We work with self-employed craftsmen, rather than large companies, to ensure that they receive equitable pay for their work and are able to generate sustainable incomes to grow their businesses and care for their families.
As Peru has a rich knitting history, we are lucky to work with incredible artisans with extraordinary knitting skills passed down for several generations. We are honored to have the opportunity to contribute to the social and economic growth of these communities.
