Today's giveaway is a beautiful blanket from Sari Bari.

Sari Bari makes and sells beautiful, handmade, vintage sari products but it's more than that. The heart of Sari Bari is its women survivors of Kolkata's red light areas who have taken brave steps into new life, freedom and hope.

Each Sari Bari product is marked with the name of the woman who made it and with your purchase you become a part of her freedom story.

We invite you to journey into the freedom story of one woman with your purchase.”
