Punjammies are made by women in India that have escaped from sex slavery. The program is sponsored by International Princess Project. IPP's mission is "to create pathways to freedom for women escaping the ravages of sex slavery to achieve lines of hope and dignity.
IPP partners with different organizations to establish sewing centers where these women learn a new trade (sewing) and are offered a fresh start that includes fair wages, housing options, medical care, and education for their children.
The website says that 100% of the proceeds from sales get reinvested back into the company. I'm very skeptical about where my money really goes when I make a donation, so I did a little research. I came across an annual report that showed the majority of the companies income does go back into the program.
They make pants, capris, and shorts in a variety of fun colors and patterns. Along with tees, tanks, and hoodies to match.
I'm always looking for unique gifts and punjammies are perfect! Who doesn't love super cute, comfy lounge wear and being able to help support another woman in her quest for a better life. Plus if you sign up for their mailing list, they will send you a 15% off code for your first order. Don't be surprised if you receive these as a gift from me or if you see me sporting a pair of my own!
