Empowerment. Sustainability. Restoration.

Empowerment. Sustainability. Restoration.

Welcome to Mend on the move, where empowerment and sustainability intersect in the most beautiful way.
We empower survivors of abuse through the artistry of salvaged auto parts and car seat leather. Each meticulously handcrafted piece you choose supports these resilient women and reduces the 3 tons of auto waste landfilled annually. By choosing our creations, you not only support these incredible women on their journey to reclaiming their lives within our uplifting community, but also join us in our mission to combat the environmental impact of auto waste. Join us in making Detroit a beacon of empowerment and sustainability.  Make a difference today.

OUR MISSION

Mend on the Move is a 501(c)(3) non-profit social enterprise serving Metro Detroit that empowers and employs women survivors of abuse through jewelry making using auto parts and salvaged car seat leather.

 

Empowering + Employing Survivors

Our makers create and share their stories in community. They learn a skill, build confidence and begin to recognize that their lives have value and purpose. Employment through Mend is one component of many other wraparound services, such as therapy, spirituality and social service resources that a survivor needs to restore and rebuild her life. And so, it is also our goal to help survivors connect the dots to Mend's community of resources.

what people are saying

 

 
A friend gifted me some earrings from Mend and I really liked them at first glance. Once I read the mission behind the organization I fell in deep love, hence ordering of three more necklaces, with Skipping Stones being one of them. Beautiful geometric shapes that give style to my wardrobe. Love supporting this group of dynamic survivors and designers.

Great Quality!
The earrings are beautiful. Every piece will be different. I love the variety of copper colors. Great for fall. I have had many compliments already. The fact I am helping women and reusing auto parts at the same time really makes me feel good.
