Photo Title	Co-Manager of Andean Products
Photo Description	This Peace Corps Volunteer was co-manager of Andean Products, the mail outlet for products created by the artisans of Ecuador. Giedd, who recently finished his Peace Corps service, was stationed in Cuenca, Ecuador. With his help and the efforts of other Peace Corps Volunteers, the volume of sales for the mail order business is now $2,000 per month. Ecuadorian weavers, potters, jewelery craftsmen and straw artisans have organized into cooperatives and these in turn have formed a cooperative federation. Fernando Salazar, left, is the new full-time director of the federation. Chris Sutton, right, is another Volunteer, working with Andean Products. Gerald, 24, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Giedd, 200 E. Lanark, Lanark III. He is 1996 graduate of the University of Illinois. Photo by Vernon K. Richey.
