Empowering lives, one thread at a time
Friendship Colours of the Chars (S.I.S.*) is a social enterprise that provides marginalized women living in the hard-to-reach "char" islands of northern Bangladesh with opportunities for a life of dignity and hope.
This is done by offering training in traditional textile production methods for slow fashion and lifestyle accessories. As a subsidiary of Friendship SPO, we are dedicated to the four main commitments - Saving Lives, Empowerment, Climate Adaptation, and Poverty Alleviation.
The impact of all our efforts is direct.
ABOUT US
Every woven textile carries powerful stories of the charwomen and celebrates handcrafted designs by Bangladeshi artisans, preserving the heritage of Bengal.
