Sacrificing for education
The artisans place a high priority on educating their children, which comes with a price tag. Even free schools require funds for books, exams and uniforms. Many of the artisans have opted to pay for private English-medium schools, a growing choice in India. Public schools are often poor-quality and use the local language, but English-speakers are given preference for jobs. Standardized tests based on rote learning are crucial in this super-competitive system, requiring the help of paid tutors.

I love the fit and feel of my Meets top! There is nothing like a good cotton top.
I have ordered many times from Marketplace and have yet to be disappointed!
Great surprise

I was nervous moldering from a new catalogue but this shirt was the first to arrive. I immediately put it on. OMG! I love it. So comfortable, great fit, feels good on. So many positive thoughts. I would definitely recommend this. I am ordering more selections from this catalogue. Only drawback, things take awhile to arrive. Good part of that is every time 1 thing arrives, it's Christmas again. Don't expect a box with everything in it to arrive in a week.
