Women on Wings social enterprise partner since January 2020
Social enterprise Rassaa Creations and Innovations Pvt. Ltd. (Rassaa) is not on one mission, but on two.
ONE: to empower women from marginalized communities to determine their own futures and protect their forests
TWO: to create unique, innovative, eco-friendly products that sustainably build livelihoods
Rassaa, which operates its business from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, produces and markets ethical, eco-friendly products such as Siali leaf plates, hand made by tribal women, for the environmentally conscious customer.
The joint goal of Women on Wings and Rassaa is to increase the number of jobs and create livelihood opportunities for women in rural India where Rassaa is working. At the start of the collaboration, 292 tribal women are engaged with the social enterprise.
