April's gift is from the Amazon, where women make jewelry to generate new income for their families.

A message from Peggy Northrop,
Former Editor-in-Chief of More
More's readers love to travel and take a keen interest in the world around them. They are the women who broke down barriers in the workplace, in politics, in media. We believe we can change the world because we've done it. We see the terrible human cost of war, disease and lack of education and we know the burden is being borne disproportionately by women and girls. More's readers want to know what they can do to help those women.
When I was introduced to CARE's "I Am Powerful" campaign, and we came up with the idea for the Giving Circle Challenge, I knew I'd found a way to channel their energy.
Women are at the heart of CARE's community-based efforts to improve education, prevent the spread of HIV, increase access to clean water and sanitation, expand economic opportunity and protect natural resources. More magazine believes that women are catalysts for change, and has joined CARE to empower women the world over.
