This gift comes from our partnership with Sustainable Threads. Sustainable Threads is a social enterprise with a passion for justice and opportunity for marginalized women in rural India. Many of the artisans are physically disabled, survivors of domestic violence, or from socially ostracized tribal communities. The founders work closely with these individuals to design and create high-quality products that maintain Indian traditions and utilize materials that are part of their heritage.
All pieces contain local, natural fibers. The women who sew these designs are assured dignified wages, safe working conditions, and an environment that values and appreciates their abilities rather than focusing on their challenges. A natural outcome is stronger women, stronger families, and stronger communities. Sustainable Threads is a member of the Fair Trade Federation and Green America.
