"None of our women have had previous employment. Many are young women preparing for their marriage in their early twenties trying to help their families pay for their wedding and dowries. Some are mothers of young ones who are trying to contribute to the needs of the home and family through their skill set."

Dekko seeks to work with individuals who possess a wide level of skills, ranging from a highly skilled tailor and his family to ladies who have never worked outside their home or had the opportunity to gain employable training.  Often times the ladies meet us at our workspace and help us with all our product packaging.  The Dekko India team has spent many happy hours enjoying conversations with these ladies as we work together to package up all the beautiful products we ship to the States, adding those last touches to make them stand out on the shelf.  The money they earn is nearly double the local hourly rate, but that’s not the only benefit they receive.  Our local team also helps them learn business skills such as accounting, calculating and other abilities that we hope helps make them more employable.
