Full Moon Empowerment Trio
Introducing the Full Moon Empowerment Trio by Lula Mena – where elegance meets empowerment. Elevate your style and make a meaningful impact with our exclusive accessory sets crafted with care and purpose.
Each set is a tribute to sustainability and artisanal craftsmanship. Included are a handmade necklace, a stunning ring, and a pair of earrings, all meticulously crafted by skilled hands in El Salvador. Our necklace features a unique white bean natural seed called Chilipuca, adorned with a swirl design of upcycled copper wire and delicate smoked crystals, finished with a graceful gray tassel. The accompanying ring boasts a stainless steel base adorned with the same captivating design as the necklace, while the earrings showcase the copper wire's beauty on a leather base in a medium size circle.
But beyond their exquisite aesthetics, these accessories embody our core values:

INCOME
The norm in rural areas is that children between the ages of 10 to 12 work the fields with their parents taking care of crops.SCHOOLING
58% of the people that live in rural areas in El Salvador live in overcrowded conditions. When there is overcrowding in families, there is a higher risk of certain problems occurring, such as domestic violence, family disintegration, poor school performance, among others.
300 SALVADORANS TRY TO MIGRATE TO THE UNITED STATES DAILY DUE TO LACK OF WORK OPPORTUNITIES.
When Lula Mena began working in rural communities, many of the young women wanted to immigrate to the United States. Now that they have seen that there is an opportunity for a better life in their community, their perception of immigration has changed. They feel more confident that they will be able to provide for their families without having to leave the country. We want to continue to grow in order to offer more young adults the opportunity to work with us and avoid immigration.
One of the major challenges we faced when we began working with women was gaining the approval of their husbands. Most of the husbands and family members worried that the women would not be able to work and meet the household’s responsibilities.
Now, their husbands prepare dinner, take care of the children, and offer them support. There is still a strong sexist culture, “machismo”, in rural areas of El Salvador that we are trying to change by empowering women.
