Sibu Beauty’s deep-rooted philanthropy efforts, particularly with the women in the Himalayan villages of Tibet, have not gone unnoticed. As a result, Sibu Beauty’s Nico Khanna had an opportunity to meet with the Dalai Lama.
In these two videos Nico talks to Sibu Beauty Founder Bruce McMullin about the lead-up to his meeting and lunch with the Dalai Lama. This meeting was brought about by interest His Holiness and his officials have in Sibu’s efforts in Himalayan villages where their sea buckthorn berries are harvested. Sibu’s fair-trade agreements have provided new well-paying jobs for villagers (especially women) so families can buy enough provisions to get through the rugged mountainous winter seasons.
