Your patronage of Monague Native Crafts goes a long way. Through your support, we are so pleased to have been able to offer support to young author OWEN SPEARS who recently self-published his memoir HOUR FOUR Surviving the Earthquake in Haiti.

Sharing our success is something that is at the heart of our business, and of our owner Sandi Monague Roy, whose goal is to support others in their growth and development. We are proud to have had the opportunity to contribute to the original mission of the Kootenay Christian Fellowship when they traveled to Haiti in 2010 on a humanitarian project, arriving hours before the terrible earthquake hit.

We were then able to continue to support Owen who returned to Haiti to assist in the rebuilding of the village in 2011 and again further supporting his attendance at the Dr. Wayne Dyer Writers Seminar in 2015. Owen, who has cerebral palsy, sets a huge example for everyone as he gives selflessly of himself and strives to be the best that he can be. Your patronage of our Canadian handmade product is what spurs us in our desire to give back for our blessings and we are so proud of what Owen has accomplished.

Owen Spears will donate $5 of every purchase of his book to the charity “Haiti Arise,” a community-based charity that develops leaders through education, and includes a medical centre and orphanage.
