|Production Group: Creative Handicrafts|
It was established in 1984 to achieve economic independence for socially disadvantaged and impoverished women in the slums of Mumbai, India. The goal is to create a humane and self-sufficient community free from caste, gender and religious discrimination.
Founder Sister Isabel Martin decided the best way to help the poor was to provide jobs, so she founded Creative Handicrafts in 1984 to teach underprivileged women how to make toys, bags and textiles.
In addition to providing employment opportunities, vigorous fair trade activities such as sewing instruction and scholarships for children continue to be vigorously pursued.
Over the years, many women have taken advantage of the technical training they received.
For example, some women started new businesses while others worked at partner companies. In addition, women who did not acquire tailoring skills received culinary training and provided lunch to many office workers in Mumbai as members of the Lunch Box Catering Project.
Many women support the household budget as the breadwinner of the household.
The organization also runs a nursery for working mothers in the slums.
