GovindammalMicrofinance Client Since: 2003 "After I was widowed, I had very little hope. Soon after however, I took out my first loan and was able to expand our family's bamboo weaving shop. I am now confident that I can take good care of my children and also provide them with a quality education. This is my life's ambition."
We at Shabby Apple Dresses love to help women dress but are also commited to helping women live as well. Thus we are supporting the fight against global poverty by partnering with Unitus-a non-profit organization that accelerates access to life-changing financial services for those at the bottom of the economic pyramid. Shabby Apple donates 5% of its net dress sales to support work in India (where Shabby Apple Dresses sources many of its dresses the textiles used to manufacture its dresses). In addition, each Shabby Apple Dresses customer has the opportunity to donote an extra five dollars to Unitus every time she buys a dress.
