Our Mission

Our aim here at Naga Threads is to provide high quality fashion clothing and accessories while raising awareness and aid for those suffering in Myanmar. We believe that each attempt to make a change, no matter how small it starts is important. The words of Mother Teresa sound powerfully in our hearts and we hope they are equally powerful to you as well.

"We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not there, the ocean would be missing something."

“If you can't feed a hundred people, feed just one.”

- Mother Teresa

What We Are Doing

  • Raising Awareness

    • The first part of our efforts to raise awareness for the Myanmar situation is our use of traditional fabrics in our ties. These patterns are unusual and will create interest in not just the proud owners of our products but those who notice and ask about the unique look.
    • We also work to keep an accurate resource on our website that explains about Myanmar as a country and it's many people as well as the current situation.

    We hope that as more people ask questions and hear more about Myanmar, that over time a greater interest will begin to take hold in the public view.

  • Supporting Change

    We know that awareness alone is not nearly enough to end the suffering taking place in Myanmar. That's why for every single product purchased, we have pledged a portion of our profits to be donated to non-profits who specifically work with Myanmar people and refugees who have fled Myanmar to seek a safer future in another country.

    Because of the current civil and political conflict, we are so far unable to produce fabrics and have our products made inside Myanmar. For now, we have been working with small businesses owned by Myanmar people who live in Thailand. Over time, as the situation changes, we hope to work closer with the Myanmar people in the creation of these products.

Want to Get Involved?

Every purchase you make here will directly support those in need. However, if you would like to give directly or find ways to volunteer, here is a list of some of the most active non-profits that help those in and from Myanmar that we have found so far.
