Nila Moti

The Indian Nila Moti Trust provides fair work for mothers in need. The stunning handmade textiles travel from India to Switzerland where they are sold to fund the trust. This beautiful concept is turning 25 this year. Swiss couple Monica and Michel Matter founded Nila Moti in 1992. Their shared passion for India paired with their dedication to charity has become the pillar of the trust. Over the years, Nila Moti has expanded and today employs 60 underprivileged mothers, giving them a regular income and social benefits. The two boutiques in Penthalaz and Bern are not only a great location to find fair-trade fashion but also offer an insight into life in Rajasthan, where the clothes are made.
