There are many concerning environmental threats that the world is facing today. Use of single-use plastic is one such concern. To address these concerns, the Indian government has banned single-use plastic carry bags from July 1 st , 2022. However, this has given rise to a “carry bag problem” in the country as people were heavily dependent on it.

To address the carry bag problem, Karma Moksha Nirvana Foundation has come up with a unique initiative called the “Rag Bag”. The essence of this initiative is to use the disposable old clothes from our wardrobes and turn them into sustainable chic carry bags. The logistic support team will collect these used clothes from individual homes and collection points like clubs or resident associations. The collected clothes will then be washed, dried, cut and stitched into chic and fashionable reusable carry bags with the help of Self-Help Groups of women. This is a great opportunity to generate employment and empower the women involved in the initiative.

After production, the KMN Foundation will distribute these rag bags for free from kiosks at markets and malls. Another major task is to make people aware about these bags and popularize the use of it. This social responsibility promotion will be done jointly by KMN foundation and an FM Radio station. Participating companies can also co-brand the bags by funding the project through CSR contributions.
