Under-privileged women are trained to make various products such as Khakhras (roasted wheat crispies), premium chocolates, vegan hand-crafted bath & body products, handicrafts, etc. to help them earn a dignified living and become independent. These products are made under strict supervision and are FSSAI and FDA approved. They are sold across 22 cities in India and also exported to USA, Canada, Dubai, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, etc. Various corporates support us by ordering gift hampers for social gifting and providing us space at their office locations to exhibit and sell our products. All proceeds are ploughed back for welfare and upliftment initiatives for these women.

We need volunteers to help us reach out to more corporates, get corporate orders for the products and manage stalls at corporate exhibitions.
