Padhma Creation is a social enterprise dedicated to uplifting women from poverty, domestic violence and human trafficking. The mid-western region of Nepal is one of the least developed parts of Nepal. The region was the hub of the Maoist insurgency in 2003. Due to spiraling poverty in the region, women in the villages are subjugated to trafficking, domestic abuse and poverty.

Our goal is to help these women create an economically self-sustainable community. Our women's skill development projects around Nepal trains unskilled women to produce and sell high quality woolen knitwear accessories.

Padhma is the Sanskrit word for lotus, the flower that emerges pure and white from the muddy swamp. It is a fitting symbol for the social enterprise we are engaged in, which seeks to help our artisan knitters' rise above poverty and helplessness to a life of financial stability.
