Ruth’s Collection
An economic empowerment story
A group of four mothers started Ruth’s Collection in 2017. After training with a local volunteer, they are sewing and selling beautiful handmade Indonesian batik clothing items online and in retail shops.
Minar is one of the first women who started sewing and selling beautiful skirts and bags. We are inspired by her strength, dedication to her children, and determination to build a better future for her family. She is leading the way for other mothers in her community.

Ten teenagers are contributing handmade journals and bags using scrap materials. They are building confidence and learning entrepreneurship skills. The mothers and teens keep 100% of their profits.
