About Gamru Rag Rugs

GamruRagRugs: Gamru Rag Rugs`aim is to help improve the lives of less privileged local Indian ladies by utilising easily accessible waste products and turning them into beautiful rugs and wall hangings.Each lady owns their own rug,so to speak.They can keep it,sell it or give it away.When sold the individual rug makers receive 85% of the total sale of the rug.Customers pay for postage and packing.The other 15% is kept to pay for collection of materials, provision of basic tools, and towards the rental of space.All the ladies have benefitted in many ways.They have developed a deep pride in their work-which is totally different to anything they`ve seen before.Self confidence has grown, they have learned a new skill, and have the opportunity to socialise in pleasant and quiet surroundings. They have earned some very much needed,honest money at the same time.This project needs no outside financial assistance-apart from customers :-) and therefore is going to be of long term benefit..and believe me they need and deserve that benefit.If you have any comments you`d like to make while you visit,please do.
