Vickery Trading Company is a nonprofit organization that renews hope to refugee women in Dallas. Within the nonprofit framework, Vickery Trading Company operates a social business selling children's clothing and related items made by the refugees (or as we call them, Associates). The Associates are paid a fair wage for their sewing work, as well as for the hours they spend each week training in English and computer proficiency. The organization also helps the Associates with placement in higher wage jobs or other desirable opportunities as they graduate from the Vickery Trading Company program, generally after 15 months to two years.
