MARA is an NGO from the Republic of Moldova, Eastern Europe, aiming to empower women in the rural areas by providing them with trainings and a place to work. In 2013 we were able to create a small studio in Scoreni village, with the financial help of donations from hundreds of individual supporters and a few companies.
We create beautiful knitted clothing, accessories and home decor pieces, helping local women earn a living. The profit is used to implement social projects that empower the women and youth in the rural areas and improve the living standards for everyone. We hire women that are in the biggest need of a job, women from social vulnerable families, single mothers etc., giving them the opportunity to work in their communities. Our women are often mothers with one or more children
