ABOUT THE ARTISANS 

Ziyada

Ziyada (Zee-yah-duh) means more—more hope, more help, more happiness, more health—for you and for our world. Ziyada exists to provide meaningful employment in a safe, loving environment for people caught in the devastating cycle of extreme poverty in North India, and in the process, to bring you more quality and beauty through each good they create.   

Indu is one of the masterful sewists behind your gather pillow. The work provided to our community by this project has allowed Indu, a new mother, to take a full maternity leave. As she embraces the beautiful journey of motherhood, we're here to support her every step of the way. With six months of paid maternity leave and comprehensive healthcare, together, we are ensuring that Indu, and artisans like her, don't have to choose between family and work. Here's to celebrating new beginnings and fostering a community where every family thrives!

Street Hope

Street Hope began as a group of women from Mathare slum who had lived on the street for their entire lives. After working with Mercy House Global to learn the art of hand-stitching, the women of Street Hope are growing in their skills and confidence, providing food and education for their children, learning to read, overcoming addiction, and moving into their own homes.

Sanaa Art

Art inspired by teen girls who have been rescued from desperate situations and are pregnant or learning to be moms. By purchasing these products, you are joining us to change the lives of women around the world by empowering them through dignified work.
