About Another Tomorrow
Born from Vanessa’s desire to create a more sustainable future, Another Tomorrow offers a modern approach to fashion. After a successful career in emerging markets finance, Vanessa took a sabbatical to explore sustainable finance. However, during her research, she uncovered alarming truths about the apparel industry’s impact on people, animals, and the environment. This led to the birth of Another Tomorrow, a brand built on three pillars: human, animal, and environmental welfare.
The mission for the company is simple yet profound: to offer a wardrobe of ethically made clothing, provide education on the broader fashion industry, and create a platform for activism. Another Tomorrow’s collection pushes the boundaries of what responsibly sourced and ethically produced materials can achieve, offering timeless, versatile pieces designed for longevity.
A Circular Economy Approach
At its core, Another Tomorrow embraces a technology-based circular economy. The brand is driven by the principles of community, transparency, and organic scarcity, ensuring that each decision aligns with the values of both the company and its consumers. By building trusted partnerships with suppliers and providing consumers with transparency about the supply chain, Another Tomorrow encourages mindful consumption and reduces fashion waste.
This circular approach extends beyond the design process, as the brand also aims to educate consumers on the broader impact of their choices. Every piece in the collection reflects a commitment to human, animal, and environmental welfare, ensuring that consumers can feel good about the clothes they wear.
Fashion as a Pathway to Activism
Another Tomorrow goes beyond offering clothing; it provides a platform for activism. Hallik and her team believe that fashion can be a powerful tool for change, amplifying voices for sustainability and social justice. Through storytelling and educational initiatives, the brand engages its community with the deeper stories behind each garment, empowering consumers to make more informed decisions.
In Hallik’s own words, the brand’s purpose is to “amplify our collective voices,” encouraging consumers to become advocates for a more ethical and sustainable fashion industry. By choosing Another Tomorrow, consumers aren’t just purchasing clothing—they’re supporting a movement for positive change.
About Vanessa
Vanessa Barboni Hallik is the founder and CEO of Another Tomorrow, a B Corp Certified sustainable design company committed to reshaping the future of fashion.

To learn more, please visit causeartist.comIn episode 216 of the Disruptors for GOOD podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Suwha Hong, CEO of Indego Africa, on empowering female artisans with vocational skills, business acumen, and crucial access to global markets, transforming them into self-sufficient entrepreneurs.
Since its inception in 2007, Indego Africa has been at the forefront of fostering the creation, growth, and sustainability of women-owned businesses across Africa. With a focus on empowering female artisans, Indego Africa equips its partners with vocational skills, business acumen, and crucial access to global markets, transforming them into self-sufficient entrepreneurs.
A Commitment to Women-Owned Businesses
Indego Africa’s mission revolves around supporting women in their journey to financial independence and entrepreneurship. Currently, the organization partners with over 23 independent, artisan-owned businesses spread across Rwanda, Ghana, and various refugee camps. These partnerships are not just about economic support; they are about creating sustainable businesses that positively impact entire communities.
Education Programs: Building the Foundation for Success
Education is at the heart of Indego Africa’s mission. Through customized business, leadership, and vocational training programs, artisans gain the knowledge and tools necessary to run and scale their own businesses. These programs are tailored to meet the unique needs of each community, ensuring that women can seize long-term economic opportunities. This commitment to education opens doors not only for the women involved but also for their families and the broader community.
Market Access: Connecting Artisans to Global Consumers
One of the key pillars of Indego Africa’s work is providing artisans with access to global markets. By fostering long-term, transparent relationships, the organization ensures that artisans receive fair wages for their work. Using locally sourced, natural materials, these artisans create heirloom-quality products that blend traditional African craftsmanship with modern design. This approach not only preserves cultural heritage but also meets the demands of contemporary consumers.
Local and Sustainable Practices
Indego Africa is deeply committed to sustainability. By sourcing natural fibers and materials from local markets and farms, the organization ensures that its production processes are environmentally responsible. When local sourcing is not possible, materials are sourced consciously, with a priority on pan-African trade, quality, and sustainability. This commitment to local and sustainable practices underscores the durability and environmental responsibility of Indego Africa’s products.
Celebrating Craftsmanship: Honoring Heritage and Innovation
At Indego Africa, craftsmanship is more than a skill; it’s a celebration of heritage. Each product, whether it’s a woven basket or a hand-carved piece of wood, is crafted using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. By collaborating with artisan partners, Indego Africa creates products that not only showcase the artisans’ talent but also bridge the gap between traditional artistry and modern design.
Transparent and Fair Partnerships
Indego Africa’s approach to partnership is rooted in transparency and fairness. The artisans work with, not for, the organization. Together, they determine fair pricing and ensure that artisans have the resources needed to deliver beautifully crafted products to consumers worldwide. This collaborative approach fosters trust and mutual respect, which are essential for long-term success.
Long-Term Impact: Transforming Communities
Indego Africa’s impact extends far beyond the individual artisans. The organization’s investment in education and market access has led to significant, measurable results. For instance, 90% of partners report an increase in income since partnering with Indego Africa, while 97% believe the skills they’ve gained will help them earn income in the future. Moreover, there has been a twofold increase in artisans who have started new side businesses outside their cooperative since 2021, demonstrating the far-reaching effects of Indego Africa’s support.
A Vision for the Future
What began as a model to uplift women in post-genocide Rwanda has evolved into a broader mission to empower women, youth, and refugees across Africa. Indego Africa believes in the potential of these individuals to achieve their dreams and become powerful engines of growth for their communities. By providing innovative designs, advanced skills training, and access to global markets, Indego Africa is helping to shape a future where women entrepreneurs can thrive and lead the way in sustainable development.

Hedvig, the co-founder of Powered by People, shares her journey from being a Danish army captain to becoming an entrepreneur. She discusses how her passion for social change and her background in the military and non-profit sector led her to start her first business, Far and Wide. However, she realized that the business had limitations and decided to start Powered by People with her co-founders.Powered by People is a marketplace that connects buyers in Europe and North America with artisans and makers in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. The platform not only facilitates the matchmaking process but also offers financing and resources to help makers become export-ready. Hedvig emphasizes the importance of cultivating a long tail of makers to ensure a unique and attractive supply.
She also highlights the role of philanthropy in supporting the training and development of makers, as venture capital is not suited for that purpose. Powered by People is focused on creating a sustainable and unique supply chain by connecting makers from around the world with buyers.
They aim to bridge the gap between the philanthropic and venture capital worlds by creating a hybrid financing model. This model allows for both venture backers and philanthropists to support the business and achieve their respective goals.
The key to making this model work is providing information and understanding to both sides, making them comfortable with each other and leveraging each other's strengths. The maker community is creating handmade, high-quality products with contemporary designs that are being bought by retailers like West Elm and the Smithsonian Institute.
Powered by People aims to scale the business, attract more buyers and makers, and become the default sourcing option for sustainable and unique supply. They also want to build out their technology to make it easier for makers to get online and grow their businesses.

Key Takeaways from Interview
The homebuilding industry is in dire need of disruption due to issues such as lack of durability, outdated construction methods, and inefficient supply chains.ONX Homes uses automation and innovative technology to build homes in less than 30 days, addressing these challenges effectively.Resilience and sustainability are central to Onx Homes' mission, with features such as hurricane impact windows and concrete construction.Government collaboration is crucial to overcoming hurdles in the approval process for new developments.Onx Homes offers significant cost savings to consumers through reduced waste, efficient labor, and global sourcing of materials.The company provides upgrades and energy-efficient features to reduce maintenance costs and utility bills for homeowners.Acquiring land and obtaining permits remain challenges, but Bhardwaj believes that government support and technological advancements can help overcome these obstacles.The company is investing in sustainable materials and technologies to minimize its carbon footprint and enhance the overall efficiency of its homes.The company is optimistic about the future of the homebuilding industry, driven by technology and increasing consumer demand for sustainable housing.In the heart of the American dream, there’s a huge shortage of about 3.2 million homes, up from 2.5 million in 2018. This gap leaves families struggling to find affordable housing amidst high prices and interest rates.
The solution seems simple: build more homes. However, traditional construction methods have their own problems, scattered supply chains, out-dated materials, long build times, and lack of environmental innovation.
A 2023 report from RMI showed that new home construction in America produces over 50 million tons of carbon emissions each year—similar to the annual emissions of Norway.
This issue isn't just about economics; it's also about the environment.
Traditional construction harms the planet, using up resources, increasing carbon emissions, and creating waste.
We need innovative solutions that provide shelter while protecting the environment.
That’s where Onx Homes comes in.
The company believes it has the answer to these challenges.

Samantha shares her inspiring journey of building a modern breast pump that is revolutionizing the breastfeeding experience for mothers everywhere.
In the revolving world of parenting technology, Babyation stands out with its groundbreaking solutions designed to make the breastfeeding experience more comfortable, efficient, and discreet.
Founded by wife and husband Samantha and Jared, Babyation aims to redefine how mothers perceive and interact with breast pumps. Here's a closer look at the company, its flagship product, and the unique features that set it apart.

The core product offered by Babyation is a sophisticated breast pump that promises to address common issues faced by breastfeeding mothers. Here are the key features that make this pump a game-changer:
Quiet Operation: One of the standout features of the Babyation breast pump is its remarkably quiet operation. Traditional breast pumps can be noisy, which can be inconvenient and disruptive, especially in public or work environments. Babyation’s design ensures a discreet and comfortable experience.Smart Technology: Babyation’s pump is equipped with advanced technology that allows for personalized pumping sessions. The smart control system lets mothers customize suction strength and rhythm to mimic their baby’s natural nursing patterns, enhancing comfort and efficiency.Discreet and Portable: Understanding the need for discretion and portability, Babyation has designed its pump to be compact and easily portable. The pump fits neatly into a bag, making it easy for mothers to pump on the go without drawing attention.App Integration: The Babyation breast pump is integrated with a user-friendly app that tracks pumping sessions, monitors milk volume, and offers personalized tips and reminders. This feature is particularly beneficial for busy mothers who need to manage their time efficiently.Closed System: Hygiene is a critical concern for breastfeeding mothers. Babyation’s pump features a closed system that prevents milk from entering the tubing and motor, reducing the risk of contamination and making the pump easier to clean and maintain.Comfort-Focused Design: Babyation has prioritized comfort in its design, with soft, flexible breast shields that adapt to different breast shapes and sizes. The gentle suction mechanism minimizes discomfort, making the pumping process more pleasant.Ease of Use: The pump is designed to be intuitive and easy to assemble, use, and clean. This user-friendly approach ensures that mothers can spend more time with their babies and less time figuring out complex equipment.Giving Back

Imagine a world where laundry isn't a chore, but a chance. A chance for women and girls to reclaim lost hours, pursue education, and generate income. This is the reality The Washing Machine Project is striving to create.
For millions in developing countries, particularly women and girls, laundry is a relentless burden. Handwashing clothes consumes a staggering 20 hours a week, stealing precious time for education, work, and leisure.
This backbreaking task not only limits opportunities but also contributes to health problems.
The Washing Machine Project is a beacon of hope, offering a revolutionary solution: the Divya, the world's first flat-packable, manual washing machine.
Soundbites
"I'll come back and I'll give you a washing machine."
"We have studied about 3,500 families across 15 countries washing habits."
"We really want to become the whirlpool of the humanitarian world."
The Divya: A Washing Machine Built for ImpactThe Divya is more than just a machine; it's a lifeline. Designed specifically for the realities of remote and displaced communities, the Divya boasts several key features:
Portable and Easy to Assemble: Unlike bulky, electric washing machines, the Divya arrives flat-packed, making it easy to transport and assemble even in challenging environments. This ensures accessibility for those who need it most.Durable and Long-Lasting: Built with high-quality components and a robust stainless steel construction, the Divya is built to withstand the test of time. Its simple design minimizes the need for repairs, and local tools and skills can often be used for fixes if needed. This empowers communities to maintain their machines for long-term use.Eco-Friendly Champion: Water scarcity is a critical issue in many developing regions. The Divya tackles this challenge head-on by using up to 50% less water compared to handwashing. Additionally, its commercial-grade components enhance its recyclability, minimizing environmental impact.Time-Saving Efficiency: The Divya boasts a 30-minute wash cycle requiring minimal manual effort. This translates to up to 75% less laundry time for users. These reclaimed hours open doors to education, income generation, and much-needed leisure time.----------------------------------------

The global housing crisis is a staggering issue, affecting 1.6 billion people who live without adequate housing. This crisis stifles the potential of millions of families, particularly women and children, across the globe.New Story Homes, a nonprofit organization, has set out to tackle this problem through a unique blend of philanthropy and market-based solutions.
By integrating innovative technology with community-focused strategies, New Story Homes is revolutionizing the path to homeownership for vulnerable families.
Takeaways
New Story's journey began with a mission to help vulnerable families access life-changing housing, leading to a decade-long evolution of its strategy and model.The transition to a market-based solution involved challenges, resistance, and a two-year metamorphosis, resulting in a hybrid model that combines philanthropy with profitable financing and lending.The future of New Story involves executing its model to attract large pools of capital, focusing on creating a product that customers love, and building a track record for accessing significant funding.The conversation highlights the potential of market-based solutions in the nonprofit sector and the importance of addressing important social problems through innovative approaches.Sound Bites
"I think you learn by doing."
"I would love to try to help as many people as possible have life-changing housing."
Empowering Through Land Ownership
At the heart of New Story Homes' mission is the concept of land ownership. In many parts of Latin America, securing land is the first critical step towards economic stability and homeownership. New Story Homes helps families purchase land, build creditworthiness, and unlock home financing. This approach shifts families from being mere beneficiaries of charity to active participants in their journey out of poverty.By developing and selling land equipped with essential municipal utilities—water, sewage, electricity, and roads—at affordable monthly rates, New Story Homes ensures that these properties are not only accessible but also sustainable and integrated into the local urban context.
Innovative Housing Solutions
One of the standout innovations of New Story Homes is the use of 3D printing technology to build homes quickly and cost-effectively.This method significantly reduces construction time and expenses compared to traditional building techniques, making it possible to provide immediate relief to families in need.
Beyond construction, New Story Homes focuses on the entire community-building process, developing housing products that meet the unique demands of local regions.
Families can use their land as collateral to secure first-time home financing, allowing them to either purchase one of New Story's housing prototypes or self-build the home that best suits their needs.
The Role of Philanthropy and Impact Investments
New Story Homes recognizes that addressing the housing crisis requires a multifaceted approach. Philanthropy plays a crucial role in funding the initial stages of projects, allowing the organization to acquire land and develop infrastructure.
However, to achieve scalable impact, New Story Homes pairs philanthropic funds with impact investments.
This blend enables the organization to extend its reach further down the market, serving families who are often excluded from traditional housing solutions.
By focusing on sustainable, market-based solutions, New Story Homes ensures that its initiatives not only provide immediate relief but also foster long-term economic growth and stability in the communities it serves.
Success and Future Innovations
The success of New Story Homes can be seen in the thousands of families who now live in safe, affordable homes in countries like Haiti, El Salvador, Mexico, and Bolivia. Each project is a testament to the power of innovation and community collaboration in solving one of the world's most pressing social issues.
Looking ahead, New Story Homes continues to push the boundaries of what's possible in affordable housing, exploring new technologies and strategies to further reduce costs and increase the speed of home construction.

In the aftermath of the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, a country torn apart by natural disaster found a beacon of hope and renewal in Deux Mains. Founded by Julie Colombino-Billingham, Deux Mains isn’t just a fashion brand; it’s a testament to resilience, empowerment, and sustainable innovation.
Julie’s journey began in the chaos and heartbreak of post-earthquake Haiti, where she witnessed first-hand the dire need for dignified employment. This profound experience laid the foundation for Deux Mains, driven by the desire to provide more than just aid—Julie sought to offer sustainable opportunities that empower the local community.
Crafting Fashion with Purpose
At Deux Mains, every piece of fashion carries a deeper meaning. The brand is rooted in the belief that thoughtful design and ethical practices can transform the fashion industry. By choosing Deux Mains, consumers support a business model that ensures safe working conditions, livable wages, health insurance, and educational opportunities for Haitian workers.
The brand’s operations are based in a solar-powered, women-owned factory, emphasizing a commitment to environmental stewardship and social responsibility. From sandals to handbags, each item is a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, made from responsibly sourced materials and created with an artisanal touch.
Sustainability at Its Core
“Deux Mains” translates to “two hands” in French, symbolizing the handcrafted nature of their products. The brand champions a circular economy, utilizing found or made materials to minimize waste and environmental impact. Their products are not only designed to last but also to merge seamlessly as staple pieces in any wardrobe, embodying timeless elegance and durability.
A Vision of Sustainable Luxury
Julie Colombino-Billingham, the visionary behind Deux Mains, brings a diverse background from her experiences as a professional dancer and aerialist to her academic pursuits in international disaster management. Her unique perspective has shaped the brand into a luxury fashion house that stands for more than just aesthetics—it stands for change.
Under her leadership, Deux Mains has evolved into a hub for job creation, where artisans are not only employed but celebrated for their skills. The brand extends beyond the borders of Haiti, sharing the island’s exceptional craftsmanship with the global market.
Joining Hands with Deux Mains
Deux Mains invites consumers to be part of a movement that values fair trade, ethical practices, and community engagement. Each purchase not only enhances a wardrobe but also contributes to the ongoing story of resilience and empowerment in Haiti.
As Julie often reflects on her initial encounters in Haiti, where a woman told her, “I don’t need water, I need a job,” it’s clear that Deux Mains is more than just a brand—it’s a lifeline, a form of support, and a step towards a brighter future for the Haitian community.
