Aama means Mother in Nepali, and that’s exactly who she has always been to the Sapana Design family.
Her real name is Jamuna Pariyar, but everyone knows her simply as Aama because of the love, care, and guidance she shared with every team member.
After dedicating more than 10 years to Sapana Design, she left over seven years ago due to family responsibilities and health issues. Today, she returned to visit her former workplace. It was truly heartwarming to welcome her back, show her around, and introduce her to the new generation of our team. She was curious about our new products and especially surprised by the banana fiber basket. She kept asking how it is possible to make something like that from a banana stem. Yes, it is possible.
One question she asked touched our hearts:�“Can I still make products from home and bring them to Sapana for sale?”
Our answer was simple: Of course, yes. ❤️
This is why Sapana Design exists—to empower women. It doesn’t matter whether you work in our workshop or from your own home. What matters is having the opportunity to create, earn, grow, and continue moving forward together.
Some people may leave the workplace, but they never leave our hearts.

We welcomed some new green friends into our compound through a plantation program organized by the Sapana Design Women’s Group. These young plants symbolize growth, hope and our commitment to a greener future.

With love, care and dedication, we will nurture them as they grow alongside us. Together, we will flourish, creating a healthier and more beautiful environment for generations to come.

We grow together with each other’s love and care.

Namaste Barsha,
This morning there was an article in the british newspaper the Guardian about rhinos in Chitwan. And there was this picture taken right in front of the Sapana Design Shop! I send you the link.

The country is seeing an increase in human-wildlife conflict as the number of megafauna, including rhinos and tigers, grows. But there are efforts to tackle the problem around Chitwan national park through education and training
