Carpet - Rug Mini - Brown

 

Carpet - Rug Mini - Brown

Hand made by Cambodian mothers to help empower them and help them keep their children in school.

Made from T-shirt off-cuts and rice sacks.
700mm x 1000mm.
Each rug is unique.

Carpets for Communities works in the Poipet commune, Cambodia on the Thailand border.
Here, many children are at risk of human trafficking and being sold into prostitution as they are on the streets begging or working to support their family. Equally important, by working and begging, they are deprived of an education that would otherwise improve their long-term livelihoods. This ultimately has them trapped in a cycle of poverty.
By teaching the mothers of these children to produce hand-made rugs made from t-shirt off-cuts and rice sacks, the aim is to help break this cycle by empowering the mothers and their families and help them establish their own micro-enterprises, enabling them to earn an income. This allows them to send their children to school, building their education and allowing their family to have a more dignified and prosperous life.
