About the Maker MESH (Maximizing Employment to Serve the Handicapped)

MESH is an Indian nonprofit organization that provides employment and training to disabled and leprosy affected crafts artisans, for their rehabilitation. A certified member of the World Fair Trade Organization, MESH provides fair wages, skills training, and safe working conditions to the workers. Many disabled people and lepers in India are stigmatized and therefore marginalized; they, hence, find difficulty working. Some women have been disabled from domestic abuse accidents by in-laws, which is not uncommon in India.

MESH employs women and men alike despite their disability, restore their dignity through employment and invest in their leadership and potential. They learn various craft skills: embroidery, weaving, paper mache, sewing, knitting, candle making, wood work, and more. Some artisans have faithfully worked at the organization for over a decade and have been promoted to management positions.
