How about sarees for life? Saree women helping others…

Me thinks she is unlocking the door! This is such an authentic picture.

From our sariholic friends in Checz Republic – hi everybody!

Another picture that I liked was:

Certain sweetness and charm in this picture – especially how the little boy is holding on the half-saree clad guest!

From what I can gather, the saree ladies collected close to Rs. 50,000 and sponsored meals for three days and eye exam for several children. A part of it was donated to Food for Life and they mused if it will be odd to have “sarees for life”.

Thank you ladies; you inspire us all. Here is a link to the English translation.

Over the years we have sponsored several children and have arranged for eye surgery for many dozens of elderly patients and I encourage all of you to do the same. It only costs $20 to sponser.

    That´s just SO great to see it covered here! I have just got myself a “charity” half-sari and a glittery chiffon parrot green sari in this years edition of Sarees for life that are oraginised by the lady from the picture in Prague, Czech Republic :-) And I hope the initiative gets “caught” elswhere as well :-)

    In the second picture, the white woman is wearing a mekhla an Assamese costume.
    Tthe half sari (:P) consists of a skirt and separate pallu and blouse. Its a traditional dress of the north-east India.
