We are ecstatic and very honored to share that Gry & Sif are embarking on a meaningful journey as we begin a scholarship program in Nepal. Gry & Sif have donated eight school scholarships aimed at creating a brighter future for the children of our artisans in Nepal. This initiative is of great importance to Gry & Sif as it encapsulates our commitment to help ensure positive development in Nepal. The eight students were collectively selected to receive the scholarship by the team in Nepal. The students will receive ongoing scholarship support until they complete their schooling. After their graduation, a second scholarship will be donated. Through these scholarships, we aim to empower our artisans so they can improve their children's future. We are so excited to follow their journey through the coming years. Gry & Sif have also donated an amount for water tanks, books, blankets and other necessities that they need in the local schools.
For us, it's not just about creating beautiful works of art; it's about creating opportunities.
"It warms my heart to be in a position where our team can make a meaningful impact on the children of our artisans. We firmly believe that the best way to support our artisans in Nepal is to give them opportunities. The positivity and kindness that we receive from our team in Nepal serves as a strong source of motivation for our business. We feel incredibly lucky to be able to help them in any way we can."
- Gry Staunstrup, founder of Gry & Sif
Beyond creating beautiful goods, we strive to create pathways to growth and prosperity in Nepal. We firmly believe that fair trade begins with empowering Nepalese people in their communities.
