"Craft production not only provides us employment, it also gives us dignity. It helps us earn a decent livelihood even amidst recurring disasters."

"At least, our skill brought immediate work and dignity back to our lives! We feel secure now."

"For us, the biggest relief was provision of work. Immediate work played a major role for us, to withstand the damage and destruction. It helped us to come out of the shock - it was like a healing medicine. By giving us immediate work - you have not only provided relief, but have also brought dignity and recognition to our lives. Our skill has now been recognized. How long can we survive on relief supplies? It is continous work that helps us survive and rebuild our lives"
