Especially now with all that is going on in the world, their mission is truly incredible and one that makes a tangible difference. Diwali, the festival of lights and a wonderful Indian tradition, begins in just a few days making this all the more timely.
After witnessing the poverty found in India, while visiting her parents’ villages in India, founder Sheila, became aware that she was one degree away from being one of the little village girls. If she could be a village girl then a village girl could be her – have her life.

This sparked an idea that would lead to the creation of the LIFE Bags. Sheila Patel founded The Life Bags in 2016 with the simple idea of providing a product that would be useful in everyday life, so they could be reminded that each and every one of us can make a change.

Together we can make a real impact.
