About this Fundraiser

What Is Freeset?

Freeset is a fair trade business offering employment to women trapped in Kolkata's sex trade. We make quality jute bags and organic cotton t-shirts, but our business is freedom!

We would like to see the 10,000 sex workers in our neighborhood empowered with the choice of leaving a profession they never chose in the first place.

Profits from Freeset benefit the women (salary, health insurance and retirement plan) and are used to grow the business. This means more women can be employed and experience freedom.


Help Support a New Business Incubator!

After much research, Freeset has discovered a huge sex trafficking problem in Murshidabad, and we believe Berhampore would be the perfect spot to set up our new business incubator!

This business incubator will help us to establish sustainable Freedom Businesses in areas where women and children face the reality of losing their freedom to the evils of human trafficking. 


Your Donation Could Change A Woman's Life!

With your donation, new options will be available to poor families. Young women will have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the family income from their local job at at freedom business without the tragedy of being trafficked. 

They will be skilled workers and part of a caring working community that will honor, love and support them! Their trade, income and growing confidence will give them a greater voice within their families and community. They will be sought after as brides and will have every chance of marrying good men.
