What started off in Nadja’s home kitchen as a passion for environmentally friendly products and sustainable resources soon developed into a small business, when the name Pure Touch was born and she started selling them in a small local shop.
Her two hands quickly needed more hands to knit and crochet. Being a social worker, she felt the need to provide women in our vulnerable community of Ocean View with the opportunity to earn an income and thereby support themselves and their families.
In February 2020 this dream became reality when Marie, who was already working in Ocean View, joined her. What started off as a small business now became much more than just that: a social enterprise selling beautifully handmade, eco-friendly products but with the focus on building relationships and a community of women that support each other, learn new skills and generate income for themselves within a business structure.
And so started the journey with the women in the community of Ocean View. We have a group of 6 great women – all moms and some already grannies, that we meet with weekly. Here we knit and crochet and do business, but also we talk, listen and support one another.
