Mandala Treasures' Family
Our family business began with a purpose of introducing the Nepali culture to the people around us. We began the business in 2000 when Ram & Janet brought back a few bags of their favorite things to sell at markets & fairs and soon moved to a small shop and have grown slowly since then. We love meeting our customers and are passionate about finding beautiful treasures from Nepal, Tibet, India and other fascinating places around the world. Thirteen years later, we have a great addition to incorporating Milan's artistic expertise and photography into the shop.
In addition to our shop, we have often offer singing bowl workshops and cooking classes. You can also come to the shop to buy our special chai blend that you can use to make authentic chai at home.
We are committed to improving the lives of the people in Nepal. We purchase our merchandise only from small family businesses and we love sharing our business with these families.
We also work with women and children in Nepal to support them in jumping class and a chance at having successful and fulfilling lives. We work with a women's group where we offer micro loans which the women have used to start businesses in their homes from buying a cow to sell milk to buying a bee hive to produce and sell honey. The women return the money when they have reach a profit which in turn is given to a new member which ensure the longevity of the group. We worked with elementary schools to implement lunch programs so that those children can be assured of at least one hot meal a day. We have also worked with these schools to hire teachers and purchase desks and furniture so that the schools can provide a better environment and education to their students. We are very passionate about this work and it has enriched our lives greatly.
