About Revolution:

Revolution is a registered non-profit social enterprise based in Lancaster, PA working with local community partners and YWCA to recruit women affected by homelessness and other barriers into their program. Revolution teaches these women the skills needed to create jewelry, and pays them for each piece they make once they are trained. This supplemental income can help them with things like groceries and bus fare, and the skills learned serves as a stepping stone to overcoming their hardships. More importantly, Revolution provides a loving, supportive community for women where they can be seen as more than their circumstances. Each piece of jewelry reflects the inherent worth women possess.

What does Lotus mean to us?

Cherish | Renewal | Life | Enlighten | Bloom

The Lotus flower begins its journey humbly, through deep mud and murky waters. The flower is symbolic of enlightenment, self-regeneration, and rebirth. Its long-suffering voyage through the mud represents our lives; we may go through trials, but those trials forge our character, allowing us to bloom unsullied from our past circumstances.
