Winter 2009
Infinite Earth teamed up with Dr. Prabhavati Dwabha, the director of a rural development project in northern India, in the means to improve the conditions of "Chamba looming center" in Uttaranchal, India. I.E donated money to fund the construction of a new building and two existing run down looms were replaced with twenty new machines.
The new hand-looming facilities have drastically improved the working conditions for the local women and they are developing a skill set that will enable them to become increasingly self- sufficient. The women have taken the initiative to organize a class to teach young women how to properly use the looming machines and they are working together to promote their own methods of production. The center supports their independent projects and proceeds go towards improving the living conditions of the women and their children.
Spring 2010
Infinite Earth teamed up with the "Wadzeck Foundation" youth care institute, seeking to expose the children to art and music and through creativity and expression, with focus on developing their self esteem.
Peter Bolmer, a Berlin musician and Hannah Munger, a representative of I.E, met with the children on a weekly basis during a period of 6 months, teaching them skills in the arts. In addition the two artists and co-founders of I.E -Mika Rottenberg and Alona Harpaz arrived for a week and created collaborative art projects with the kids. The outcome was beyond expectation and I.E and the children celebrated it with an exhibition of the children's works.
Winter 2012
In January 2012 I.E started supporting the "Wide Children's Home" orphanage in Tiruvannamalai, India. Mica Dvir Infinite Earths representative in India organizes various artistic activities with the kids.
As I.E discovered that Xavier, the father of the orphanage- who runs it together with his wife Kumari, is a tailor they came up with the idea of giving Xavier the opportunity to teach the children how to sew and bought "Wide Children" three sewing machines.
In addition I.E hires Xavier to sew garments designed by Mica Dvir, sells them in Berlin and later passes the profits back to the "Wide Children" home which are then used for the children's basic needs such as food, clothes, school material etc.
