Ekra's Story of Hope Growing up in India, Ekra dreamed of graduating, but financial challenges forced her to drop out of school in the 8th grade. Without an education, her job opportunities were severely limited. As Ekra watched her older brothers follow in their father's footsteps and become woodworkers, she became interested in their family's business. She started helping with finishing and packaging. Now she works alongside her brothers as an equal Artisan partner with the support of their Artisan community who recently made improvements to their family's workshop by adding safety equipment and better lighting. Ekra is grateful for her work and for the financial support of her Artisan community, especially during the recent COVID-19 lockdown in India.
