Noah's Ark was established to provide integrity, welfare and better living conditions for very poor artisans in the villages of Moradabad, India. Besides fair wages and business support, Noah's Ark provides life insurance, medical and a facility for child education. Through their profits, they are building a school to provide free education to the children who work in the fields of Moradabad. Noah's Ark is also associated with Indian Society of Deaf and Indian Every Home Crusade. Noahs Ark has recently joined IFAT, the International Fair Trade Association, and currently, over 90% of their sales are to IFAT members. Noahs Handicrafts and Welfare Society provides free nutrition, medical services and basic education for artisans and their families. Thirty-five artisan groups, representing 280 full-time artisans are working with Noahs Ark.
Noahs Ark seeks to enable artisan groups to become established enough to purchase their own machinery and raw materials. These groups can then continue to market and export their handicrafts through Noahs Ark. As the businesses become more self-sufficient, Noahs Ark takes on new families. Since their inception, about 20 workshops have become independent.
