RAGBAG
A Social Service Initiative
SAVE THE EARTH MISSION
RagBag is a social innovation project. It has been envisaged as a part of our efforts to work for the world in our common quest to save the environment and enhance human life.
PLASTIC BAGS BANNED!
Plastic bags have been part of our daily lives ever since we can remember. Whenever we shopped we got one… or more
To save the environment, the Govt. of India has banned single use Plastic Carry bags
IMAGINE THE DISRUPTION TO OUR SHOPPING HABITS!
(It’ll be a while before people learn to carry their own bags to the shop!)
TOO MANY CLOTHES!
Many of us have too many clothes. We buy clothes on almost for every occasion and impulse. Wardrobes are overstuffed!
Almost all of us have clothes that are just a bit faded or flawed – not old enough to be thrown but too old to be worn. It is challenge to dispose them off,
WHAT IF WE TURNED THESE CLOTHES INTO SHOPPING BAGS?
(We can even distribute the better ones to the poor and needy!)
LET”S START COLLECTING
At Karma Moksha Nirvana we have set up the logistic team to collect used clothes.
These will be picked up from individual household or from collection points such as local clubs and residential estates
A SPONSOR CAN ADD OWN VENUES TO BOOST BRAND IMAGE.
(Surely Red FM like to add its name to a good cause?)
EMPOWERING SHG WOMEN
Now the ladies come in. The task of converting old clothes into new bags with be done by Women’s Self Help Groups
The collected clothes will be washed dried, cut, stitched and iron by self help ladies groups.
WE CAN ENSURE A STEADY LIVELIHOOD TO EMPOWER WOMEN
(Every RagBag will put some money in a woman’s purse)
DELIGHT THE SHOPPERS
The ready Rag Bags will then be distributed to shoppers for free from Kiosks at markets and malls
