What is Kaftan for a Cause?
A Vision:
The vision for Kaftans for a Cause came about by seeing in our community women and children affected by homelessness due to domestic violence.
A Dream:
The dream is to create kaftans with beautiful Indigenous prints and a percentage of profits will go towards community organisations that are assisting vulnerable women and children in our community affected by domestic violence and other such issues.
A Goal:
The long-term goal is to gain extraordinary sales of Kaftans for a Cause to be able to contribute funds to assist community organisations to acquire property for emergency accommodation and permanent housing for vulnerable women and children.
As statistics in 2021-22, showed around 108,000 people who experienced domestic and family violence also required support from a specialist homelessness service. Of those people, 75% were females.
Our goal is to make Balgarra Designs Kaftans for a Cause not just a beautiful garment to wear at any time to any function but to give each garment you purchase from us, a meaning.
That meaning is love…. Love is gentle, love is patient and love is kind.
The Kaftan that you purchase from Balgarra Designs is a kaftan that has been made with love.
