We support two animal rescue non-profits based in India. As we grow, we will adopt more such projects in the areas of conservation and animal welfare, especially those making a difference at the grassroots level.
Additionally, we are proud to support underprivileged artisans who produce exquisite goods through our own product lines, Avirose and Vedanta.
We have a stringent process to identify the organizations we decide to support and will ensure that donations received are used judiciously and for the purpose for which they are made.

Raksha Make a Difference
Raksha Make A Difference is a growing animal welfare and animal rights organization led by Vanshika Gupta in Prayagraj, India. It was founded in 2012 to educate underprivileged children free of cost and undertake projects like large-scale tree plantations, distribution of bird houses, bowls for food, and water for stray animals. The focus of the organization changed to animal welfare and animal rights in 2016 and was registered as a non-profit in 2018.
Over the years, this non-profit has saved thousands of animals in distress. This small team led by Vanshika manages two big shelters, one clinic, and one OT that treats stray animals. Currently, there are over 60 cows and calves, over 150 dogs, and 20+ cats healing under Vanshika’s care.

Avirose and Vedanta
We are proud to present goods from our product lines, Avirose and Vedanta, representing our care and compassion for all living beings.
Avirose is an ode to women using their creativity to weave an environment of peace and beauty. The all-woman team of Avirose strives to create products that usher in serenity and bring a vintage feel to the spaces in our homes.
The idea of Avirose was born when, on a visit to her ancestral home, its founder felt a strange connection to her grandmother's sewing machine and remembered how her grandmother had sewn intricate – almost magical – designs from simple fabric. These creations were highly sought after in the social circles of those days; thus, Avirose was born.
Vedanta is also a woman-owned enterprise that manufactures unique handcrafted products, providing employment to underprivileged artisans.
The proceeds from sales of these Avirose and Vedanta products will go to deserving projects related to animal rescue and habitat conservation.
