“ When you buy a product made by an Artisan, you are showing respect for quality, skill and uniqueness besides the fact that you are saving them and their loved ones from becoming homeless”
About Sneha Karma Foundation
Sneha Karma Foundation is a USA registered 501c(3) nonprofit organization based in California, USA. It was founded by a person just like you who wanted to give back to the community but always disappointed to find out that more often than not, very little of the donation amount reached the actual needy person. Most of the Non-Profits that are out there have a very high operating cost. We currently operate at less than 10% operating cost and even that is funded by the founder member directly. So 100% of your donation amount goes to help and support the needy.
About ‘Artisans Direct’
‘Artisans Direct By Sneha Karma Foundation’ is our 100% Not-For-Profit Social Enterprise Initiative of Sneha Karma Foundation.
Artisans in the rural regions produce some amazing goods. Unfortunately, they are forced to give up on their generations old trade because the are unable to find a marketplace for their produce and hence unable to earn a livelihood. Our vision is to help create a market place for these goods in regions which are more financially secure (such as developed countries), where people would buy these goods/services knowing that this would help the needy.
