Aceh Group

In 2005, a devastating earthquake and tsunami hit Indonesia, killing more than 150,000 people and leaving thousands homeless. Today, Indonesians are still trying to rebuild their homes and lives, purse by purse. Ten villages throughout the Aceh Province, including 1,000 women and 10 men, have teamed with the Aceh Embroidery Group to embroider and tailor purses. Not only does this job provide a second income for the families, it also helps heal from the devastation brought by the tsunami.
