SUDIN SOTTA
PAAR is proud to announce that we are one of the nine Community Partners (Entrepreneurs) collaborating with the SUDIN program of SAJIDA Foundation for ‘SUDIN SOTTA: Uplifting Communities, Empowering Lives’, happening at Aloki on January 27, 2024, from 5:00 PM till 8:45 PM.
We had the best time training and learning from the community members. Together, we wove magic, creating exquisite pieces that brought beauty and ensured a steady income for the immensely talented women artisans.
The orders received for this collection will be prepared by Beraid Rishi Para community members to improve their skills and give them a chance to realize their potential.
At the event, our products made in collaboration with Beraid Rishi Palli women, will be showcased in a fashion show. The models will be none other than the community members of the Beraid Rishi para!
Eminent guests at the event will also be able to buy or order traditional products handcrafted by the artists. We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the SAJIDA Foundation and their SUDIN program for organizing this event and collaborating with Beraid Rishi Para Artisans.
