At Hara Makers, we focus on elevating the lives of individuals in low-income communities, including housewives, single mothers, and others facing barriers to full-time employment. We go beyond financial aid by offering training in sewing, enabling participants to craft high-quality, commercial-standard items.
Our role doesn't end with training. We connect skilled artisans with a steady stream of work, ensuring they have both the tools and opportunities needed to thrive. This approach helps our beneficiaries achieve economic independence and professional success.
Supporting Hara Makers means joining a cycle of empowerment that strengthens entire communities and fosters lasting economic stability.
Meet Rizal
Rizal is one of the waste pickers we have the privilege of working with in our mission to create a better future for our planet and its people.
Born into an economically disadvantaged family, Rizal's life has been anything but easy. Despite the numerous challenges he has faced, his resilience, strength, and hope for a better future have always stood out.
At Hara Makers, we've had the opportunity to support him by providing access to financial independence and training in upcycling. Today, you have the chance to invest in Rizal and his family's future as he continues his diligent work on the front lines of our battle against plastic pollution.
