If not, to quickly summaries, ''Freeset'* employs courageous young
woman- who used to work as prostitutes in one of India's largest red
light districts, to make these jute bags (and hopefully soon- lots of
other stuff). Basically .. every new sewing machine = another job =
freedom and choice for more woman
... seriously the team there have heaps of crazy ideas, one being me
going over and doing a branding kit for the distributors..

I was just going to slip away- with my saved pennies..
but I was thinking while I'm there- it be cool to pimp out 'Freesets'*
pad with sustainable gear...

hence this quicky flyer thingy.. attached..

Totally no pressure-
but if you want to give a little and see your monies go somewhere in
real time..

*Freeset bags was started by a family from New Zealand who wanted to
work with the poor in Calcutta, India in some capacity. When they
migrated to India, they moved into their house during the day. Later
that night, they discovered they'd moved into a huge sex-industry
district. As they started to get to know their neighbours, ideas
started to come and from one came Freeset. Freeset bags manufacture
bags made from jute, a natural fiber found in India. Styles of bags
range from conference bags to gift bags to carry bags. Freeset is
establishing markets through Europe, North America, Australia and New
Zealand. Most importantly though, Freeset is NOT a sweatshop
operation, like run by many multi-national corporations (Nike? Gap?
IBM?).Freeset is a business of freedom taking over a business of slavery.
Each Freeset Bag tells a story of one woman's journey to freedom. She
used to stand with 6,000 other prostitutes in a small but well known
area of North Calcutta. She didn't choose her profession; it chose
her. Poverty does that. It robs people of their dignity and children
of their innocence. She still lives in the same area, but instead of
selling her body she makes Freeset Bags. Now she has choices, the
choice to work decent hours for decent pay, to re-establish her
dignity in her community and to learn to read and write. Now her
daughter won't have to stand in the street selling her body like her
mother used to. Freedom has been passed on to the next generation.
By purchasing a Freeset Bag, you become part of the story of freedom.
