Anchal Project

Anchal believes design can change lives.

Anchal is a non-profit social enterprise that uses design and collaboration to provide economic opportunities for marginalized women through a holistic program, the creation of sustainable products, and access to the global market. Anchal artisans uplift themselves from the commercial sex trade, domestic violence, or poverty by crafting trendsetting products in sustainable methods that create financial independence and safety for themselves and their children.

Anchal's First Children's Collection

A New Initiative: Train & Equip Artisans to Make Children's Apparel

Anchal is proud to announce a new initiative - a production unit solely focused on creating children’s apparel! 

By launching this initiative, Anchal will provide artisans with extensive new skills training and industry-standard machinery required to create safe and high-quality tested textile products. 

This opportunity will enhance their knowledge, skills, and economic stability, supporting their journey to break free from cycles of exploitation, abuse, and systemic poverty.
