Empowering Women (Artisans)

We are not only celebrating women's art & creativity but we are also dedicated to improving the lives of women embroiderers in Hazara Town Quetta, Jordan and in the Palestinian refugee camps of Lebanon. We provide opportunities for women to earn income and provide needed financial support for their families.

30% of our profits from the "Collection Inspired by Hazara Embroidery" are donated to Women Initiators (WI). The fund supports their project, Adults Learners Class. This organization was established in 2013 by a group of female student activists. It was formed for awareness and economic empowerment of women, for promoting gender equity, access to quality services, and opportunities for building an equitable society through convergence and partnership.
