Gifting with a Conscience 🤗🛍️ My Experience with CARE Factory

Continuing from our Bengaluru meetup, I wanted to share a special experience that made our gathering even more memorable. As a token of appreciation for my fellow Local Guides (LG) friends, I decided to gift them sustainable products from the CARE Factory.

During my visit to the CARE Factory and their outlet, I was impressed by the beautiful products and warm hospitality. The shop offers a wide range of unique, sustainable, and competitively priced items, from stylish handbags to functional conference folders. What truly sets them apart is their commitment to supporting mental health initiatives through the MS Chellamuthu Trust.

The staff were friendly, eager to help, and happy to customize products to meet my needs. I loved browsing the shop and discovering new treasures. From stylish handbags to wooden trays, each item is a testament to the team’s dedication and passion.

But what made these gifts even more special was the customization. I proudly had my winning logo for the Local Guides’ tenth anniversary printed on the bags, making each gift a unique and personalized token of appreciation.


What’s more, the CARE Factory campus is a hub of creativity and enterprise, with a baking division and printing division also located on site! Their baking division offers a range of delicious treats, while their printing division provides a variety of printing services. It’s truly impressive to see the CARE Factory’s commitment to sustainability and social responsibility in action.

Gifting these sustainable products to my LG friends was a wonderful way to show my appreciation for their friendship and commitment to sustainability. It was a small gesture, but one that reflected our shared values of caring for the environment and supporting meaningful initiatives.

If you’re looking for unique, sustainable, and meaningful gifts, I highly recommend visiting the CARE Factory retail shop. By supporting this wonderful cause, you’ll not only be getting amazing products, but also contributing to a more sustainable and compassionate world.

The hand-made bag is not only a treasure trove of warmth of friendship but much more @MathanVibranarayan

Even though you briefly mentioned it, I wasn’t aware there was so much care and affection that goes into making it :revolving_hearts:

Our grand mega meetup was truly remarkable and memorable for a long time, thanks to the commendable organization and hosting by @TravellerG :handshake:

Discription:-
I too had got fridge magnets made from an online firm in Andhra Pradesh and was sending them to TG as a friendly gift for my local guide friends. But the courier service said that as per Indian law, magnets cannot be sent by air. Anyway nice initiative Thanks @MathanVibranarayan :handshake:
