KINAMANIA collaborates with NGOs
September 18 2018 – Kristina ZOUEIN
KINAMANIA X SOCIAL RESPONSIBILTY
The people that we collaborate with are the most significant part of our work and of the products that you purchase from KINAMANIA.
Artists, artisans and NGOs are behind each of our Voyage capsule collections.
Being committed to bringing handicraft stories to global and socially conscious consumers, to date we have joined hands with two NGOs on the kina abarca lines. Both NGO's are working for women's empowerment, Inaash and The Ana Collection:
KINAMANIA X NGO INAASH | PALESTINIAN REFUGEES
Inaash works to promote Palestinian cultural heritage through the production of high-end traditional embroidery, and to create economic opportunities for women living in Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon. Over 300 hundred women and their families are part of their network, reaching approximately 1500 people in six refugee camps throughout Lebanon.
Kinamania collaborates with Inaash on the Orient collection.
KINAMANIA X THE ANA COLLECTION | SYRIAN REFUGEES
The Ana Collection Sisters Marianne and Melina Moussali, from Aleppo, have founded a unique collection of dolls to help aid the plight of those affected by the Syrian war. Their dolls are hand-stitched with illustrations based on the stories of displaced children and families, while the embroideries are made by women in Lebanon, from the Bassmeh & Zeitouneh NGO. "We want to spread the unheard, simple stories and aspirations of everyday people like you, people like me who are forced daily to flee their homes. Their hopes and identities are being muffled by the blinded media, the stubborn big powers and the selfish hands of time."
Kinamania collaborates with TheAnaCollection on the Aleppo collection.
