Remy Hans, a 3rd year International Studies student at York University, Canada and a volunteer at Literacy India last summer recently organised exhibitions for Indha at the two campuses of the University- Keele Campus and Glendon Campus.
The exhibition received a tremendous response from the students. Here's what Remy had to say about it...
"Voila!!!! It was a success. Everyone loved the bags especially the Sarla, Anita and Sunil (Wooden Ring bags). It was amazing to have got a great response. I've noticed that students here are very sensitive towards such issues. They bought tons of stuff because it was for a good cause! People do care!!! I felt proud to be associated with such an organisation who strongly advocates women empowerment. My day was made as the response was amazing considering we haven't had such exhibitions/fund-raising events over the past year at Glendon. Most of the students and professors are extremely excited as they would be buying lots more next week."
