Meet India’s very own “Desi Barbie”—traditional, handcrafted dolls that mirror our real culture, heritage, and everyday memories.
In this video, we share the inspiring journey of Rema Chechi, an artisan behind The Good Doll. When she first discovered her passion for doll making, her dream was simply one sewing machine away. Without privileges or financial backing, getting started seemed nearly impossible—until social investment platform Rang De stepped in.
Today, Rema Chechi has not only repaid her loan with pride, but she also trains and mentors local women to create eco-friendly, sustainable toys, empowering an entire community.
Watch how small peer-to-peer investments in rural India create sustainable livelihoods, preserve cultural art, and deliver meaningful social and financial returns.
