TINY MIRACLES FOUNDATION
A foundation working to eliminate poverty by creating self supporting communities
All products we offer are designed by Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop and manufactured by the women of the Pardeshi community who live in one of the most impoverished areas of Mumbai, India. Tiny Miracles Foundation supports these women and their families. It is our ambition to develop a working business model to enable poor communities anywhere around the world to break their own poverty cycle. Buying our products directly helps to achieve this ambition. Supporting the Pardeshi women with income means that they are one step close to become self supporting.
