Style made with Love
Handcrafted. Sustainable. Globally Inspired.
Noonday is a people first lifestyle brand that collaborates with artisans in underserved communities to create our selection of soulful goods one handcrafted piece at a time.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to build a flourishing world where women are empowered, children are cherished, people have jobs, and we are all connected.
Women are empowered
Investing in women creates a ripple effect that positively impacts entire communities. Our company is not only female-founded but also female-run, with nearly 90% of our home office staff being women. Additionally, 75% of the artisans we collaborate with are female.
Children are cherished
Children are cherished. Every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment to grow and thrive. We partner with fair trade artisan groups and organizations that prioritize children's rights to ensure that the products we offer are ethically made and free from child labor. We are dedicated to supporting children through our Sunrise and Sunshine Scholarship programs.
People have jobs
Dignified work changes lives. We work side by side with Artisan Entrepreneurs to enable their communities to flourish through dignified job creation, collaborative design, responsible financing, capacity building, and long-term partnerships. Each piece they make tells a story of skilled craftwork, cultural heritage, and empowerment.
We are all connected
Honoring our connection to one another and to the earth is our highest aim. Through intentional travel experiences and community service projects, we help connect people across cultures. Our designs celebrate and help preserve traditional heritage techniques. We honor the earth by reusing and recycling whenever possible, producing in limited quantities.

Our Story
From a Fundraiser to a Brand
In 2010, Jessica Honegger found herself in the recession right in the middle of adopting a child from Rwanda. As a home flipper and realtor, she didn't want a financial obstacle to get in the way of completing the adoption.
On a previous trip to Uganda, Jessica met Jalia Matovu, who created beautiful handmade goods but lacked a stable marketplace to grow her venture. Honegger, now cornered by courage, saw a solution to both of their problems: By selling Jalia's handmade goods in the US, Jessica could raise funds to adopt her son, while simultaneously generating revenue for Jalia's venture.
The overwhelming reaction to the story and the products propelled Honegger to turn her at-home fundraiser into an actual company. 15 years later, the brand has invested over $30 million in payments to artisans worldwide and has created flourishing in vulnerable communities around the world.
