Education Program: Students in Nepal and India often don't have access proper backpacks, notebooks, pens, pencils and all the other stationery that student need to be successful at school. Academic results suffer, attendance levels are low, and graduation levels are even lower. Enhancement of quality education is crucial for the development of a society, country and the entire globe as a whole. We have designed Educational Creative Package for students, giving them everything they need to study for 1 year.

Skills Training and Economic Empowerment Program: The fast fashion industry supports inhumane working conditions. The majority of those affected are women, who labor for long hours without a fair wage. We provide marginalized women with education and creative skills training to become professional fashion designers, seamstresses, embroiderers, weavers, and jewelry designers. In partnership with Local Women's Handicrafts, we provided artisans with the skills and resources to preserve their craft, reach global markets, and share their stories at U.S. craft fairs and educational events. Through their work, they not only sustain their cultural heritage but also raise awareness about modern slavery.
