About Open Hand Designs
The People
Open Hand has been on the ground working in India since 1999. We focus on employing "unhirables", meaning people who would otherwise be frowned upon due to their caste, religion, a physical disability, or a disease such as HIV.
These people are given a second chance at Open Hand, where they can receive medical care and job training. Our staff is paid a decent livable wage, above local standards, so their families can survive. In many cases we have also paid for education for our staff and members of their family. This is our fair trade...a fair wage, a safe and clean working environment, a valuing of cultural identity, and a desire to care for and empower the poorest of the poor.
The Products
We are not just an importer, we are the manufacturer. Because of this our design team in the United States is able to work daily with our manufacturing units to provide inspired and unique product ranges that are crafted by our skilled artisans. Our goal is to sell products that are beautiful, functional, and fashionable. We want you to enjoy these products knowing they weren't produced at the expense of another human being's safety or dignity.
Our Communities
We are committed as a company to helping fight human trafficking locally and nationally, and in doing so are giving back 10% of this sale to this cause. Once such group we partner with is Not For Sale Campaign, a group whose focus is to work at the grass roots level to empower everyday people to recognize and help stop human trafficking.
