Our handcrafted rugs are meticulously hooked, woven and tufted by skilled artisans with the power to transform an ordinary space into something spectacular. Created in India, these intricate rugs provide a livelihood to villagers. Empowering freelance artisans to become business owners, especially women below the poverty line, increases their earning potential while establishing them as leaders within the artisan community. We regularly conduct Weavers Engagement programs, health camps, artisan cards, and more in order to enhance their skill set, morale and self-sustainability. Reaching out to remote rural areas and establishing bonds within village communities, enables them to start weaving not just rugs, but also their own futures.

A portion of the profits from these rugs and pillows goes towards a school lunch program that serves fresh, nutritious daily meals to 1.3 million children in rural India. For many children, this is their only substantial meal of the day. Additional donations are also made to a scholarship program that enhances literacy and learning in Southeast Asia. Nearly 80 percent of children from impoverished families drop out before graduation due to the burden of educational fees, books and uniforms. This program helps compensate for all school expenses in addition to mandating and paying for after-school tutoring for students most in need.
