Who we are
Daughters of the Ganges is a socially conscious brand that brings to you handcrafted and ethically created products from India. DOTG, as we lovingly call it, was an idea that was born when we stumbled upon an opportunity to do something meaningful and make a difference to the vulnerable and marginalised communities in India. We feel that a way to do this is to help artisans, especially women, in these communities using Fair Trade principles as guidelines.  We source our products from artisan communities that have passed on their skills through the ages and are keen to nurture their cherished traditions and crafts. Each product that you purchase from DOTG is a testimony of the love and dedication exhibited by our artisans and tells a story of how lives can be changed

Our mission

Our mission is to empower and uplift our primary stakeholders — the artisan communities. With a growing global appreciation for handcrafted goods, we aim to connect our artisans to this expanding market through Fair Trade practices. Together, we strive to build a movement that fosters stability, self-sufficiency, and lasting impact by providing artisans with sustainable income and opportunities for growth.

Sustainable Employment and Fair Trade

Ethos of DOTG

The ethos of DOTG is one of Fair Trade and sustainability. We give our artisans and their crafts the respect that is due to them, making them part of our growing family. Time is devoted to train our artisans to ensure that they have sustainable jobs and new skills to carry with them through their lives. Women that are unable to leave their homes are given raw materials and tools to work from home, making communities more inclusive. Fair and equal wages, sustainable and ethical sourcing and safe work environments also fall under the umbrella of Fair Trade and are some of our key objectives. In our efforts to bring about change, we also provide after school programs for the children of artisan communities to ensure that their children have a bright future.   

When you purchase from us, you are contributing to the empowerment of several small-scale businesses and in the bargain playing a part in the development of their communities. Join us in our efforts to make a difference.– Team DOTG
