Millions of people across India rely on producing textiles to earn a living. They work long hours for low pay and often suffer ill-health from poor working conditions and chemicals used in the manufacturing process.
In Rajastan, India, we are working with small textile businesses to ensure sustainable production through eco-friendly practices, reducing water wastage and promoting organic textiles. Through a range of approaches we aim to address poor pay for textile workers, inadequate working conditions and preservation of the environment through eco-friendly working practices.
By giving £15 you can help promote a healthier future for textile workers in India.

Why should I give Gifts for Life?
Gifts for Life are unique presents that will bring joy to a friend or relative - and make a lasting difference to the lives of producers in developing countries struggling to make a living.
None of these gifts are a quick-fix for poverty. Traidcraft's charity, Traidcraft Exchange believes in lifelong solutions brought about through better trade. Every gift in this catalogue will help a small-scale producer to make the most of their wonderful skills by enabling them to sell their produce to local and overseas consumers for a fair price.
