Recycled Newspaper Carry Bags
Kristy and Somar Xavier from The Industree in Maleny wish to formulate interest in their not for profit venture that is kind to the environment and funds charitable organisations in India.
Recycling newspaper into carry bags is an environmentally friendly way of reusing paper. Better still, the production of these hand made bags provides a source of income for rural villagers and the proceeds of their sale feeds, shelters and educates about 60 homeless children.
This work is undertaken by an organisation in the north of India. The newspaper bags are made predominantly by rural village women; including single mothers who have been disowned by their families.
