"From the Community" AYLLU Inc. is a 501c3 USA registered non profit that specializes in Fair Trade product development and sales. Ayllu is a Quechua word that means "community" and Ayullumanta is a Quechua phrase that means "from the community." Many of the producer groups we currently work with, speak Quechua, a 5,000 year old Andean language. Ayllu works on two levels: Native Communities: Ayllu currently works with native communities of the Bolivian Andes Mountains in product development and marketing. We base our work on traditional skills and available organic materials to create high quality natural alpaca, llama and cotton knits. USA Consumers: Ayllu also offers outreach programs, workshops and speaker series targeting USA consumers to educate them on the significance and importance of fair trade and organic production. Get involved! Ayllu has internship and volunteer positions available both in the USA and Bolivia. Invite us to your next event!
