Our partner workshop WORK+SHELTER creates high quality, ethically made, customized sewn goods. They provide paid training for women entering the garment industry and a fair-trade wage regardless of the amount of work to be completed. Women at are paid up to 5 times more than what they could be earning elsewhere, and they can count on a consistent paycheck rather than the piece wage that is typical in the industry. Your purchase is providing women in New Delhi with the opportunity to build stability and independence.
The consistency of the wage allows women to plan and save, oftentimes for the first time in their lives. Currently, over 50 women are employed. More than 95% of the fabrics have an environmental qualifier — meaning that they are either recycled, upcycled, or organic. By purchasing organic cotton products, you contribute to the greater good of our planet.
