While traveling through Asia, our founder Janelle Clasby fell in love with Thailand. The kindness of the Thai people inspired her to start a business that would alleviate the daily stress of living in poverty. After meeting our first artisans, Wilawan, Rung, and Watini, she was determined to create a consistent job for these talented women and pay them fairly for their high quality work. Starting with just three artisans, we have now grown to employ over 300.
"I wanted to help because I thought the people were really kind and nice and they deserved a better quality of life. Not struggling so much, not having to wonder where your next meal is coming from or stress about things that you can’t afford." - Janelle
After 2 years of establishing our brand, we opened up a retail store in San Diego, CA!
For every mask we sold we donated one to healthcare professionals in the US. We sold so many that we started handing them out to local businesses, homeless shelters, and donated 10 free masks to workers in education.
Due to mask sales, our artisan team nearly doubled, from 150 artisans to 300!
We reached out to our customers to nominate someone who may be in need of support during the holidays and received an overwhelming response. So much so that we expanded our giveaway from 10 to 26 winners and we gave away $20,000 amongst the winners.
100% of net proceeds from the sale of this collection went towards our business neighbor, Timeless Nails to support paying off their debt due to Covid-19 closures.
We have sponsored many food drives across Thailand, supporting orphanages, schools, and those struggling to feed their families during the pandemic. During our first food drive, we fed 500 people for 5 days, and we later handed out survival bags with cash, kilos of rice, eggs, canned fish, toilet paper, and soap.
