Connexions is a Vocational Training Center that begin in 2002 with 6 young, underpriveledged women from the slums of Calcutta, India. Their goal was to provide women between 16 and 25 years of age skills that would help them earn dignified livings with skill. Each woman partakes in a job training program, now in conjunction with a local univeristy to be taught not only tailoring skills and paper crafts, but English and business skill sets as well.
Their beautifully created sari throws, bags and accessories are blanket stitched by hand with care and intricacy. See what the joy of hope makes here!
