In 1991, CARE set up an industrial home to generate economic opportunities for women affected by the devastating floods in Sheikhupura, Lahore. This turned into a full-fledged enterprise development programme and CARE Crafts today continues to employ underprivileged men and women to create a wide range of handicrafts in Pakistan. A sample of these are available to you to buy below. Not only does C
ARE Crafts provide employment opportunity to the skilled workers, but the proceeds from the sale of CARE Crafts are invested directly back into CARE schools. Your purchase of these items will support the education of underprivileged children in Pakistan. At CARE Crafts, a wide range of skillfully made products are manufactured. These products create employment for skilled men and women with the funds invested in CARE Schools. CARE Crafts celebrates women empowerment and it hopes to establish a stand-alone retail outlet for CARE Crafts that showcases hand-crafted and hand-embroidered bags, purses, jewelry, gift cards, bags, cushion covers, table runners, laptop and mobile covers and files and folders.
