ARZU, which means “hope” in Dari, is an innovative model of social entrepreneurship that helps Afghani women weavers and their families break the cycle of poverty by providing them steady income and access to education and healthcare by sourcing and selling the rugs they weave. Founded in 2004 by retired businesswoman and financier Connie K. Duckworth, ARZU is structured as a 501(c)(3) in the United States and an international NGO in Afghanistan. ARZU operates as a “for benefit” corporation, using private sector practices to create jobs in desperately poor rural villages where little opportunity exists.
BKM Total Office of Texas is the exclusive distributor for Arzu Studio Hope in the DFW area.
BKM’s distribution for Arzu Studio Hope stems from a
desire that BK M owners, Carol Roehrig and Carlene
Wilson, have to help women entrepreneurs become productive providers for their families. Realize your ability to help by purchasing an Arzu rug. Because it’s not just a rug: it is design with a mission; it is art with a story of hope.
If you’re interested in learning more about Arzu Studio Hope or if you would like to design a custom rug, please reply to this email or click here.
