Formation of a new bond!

Mr. Pankaj who came as a resource person for us also works for a fair trade organization called Tara project in Delhi. It is also one of our suppliers. Last year, he has visited two of our Producer groups in Dharamsala but could not visit the Tara Tibet beads.
The day at Tara Tibet beads began with the introduction to the work place, the artisans and finally the BEADS! He fell for them undoubtedly - the designs, quality and most of all actually seeing the whole process. He talked to TARA in Delhi and shared information about the beads and the organization as a whole- the attitude of the artisans, the working condition and the warmth. I also spoke with Mrs. Moon Sharma- President of Tara project.
They decided to buy some samples and later contact them for order, if any comes by. A new bond was formed between Tara project in Delhi and Tara Tibet beads in Dharamsala... ......with hopes held high and a sense of triumph, I left Dharamsala.
