Dignity Marketplace Catalog - 2021


I am happy to share a link to a colorful well illustrated catalog of products / services  meant for senior citizens. It is a 32  page booklet where you might find sellers of books, jewelry, home decorations, food items / snacks, travel, art & crafts, sarees, paintings, photographs, clothing, wellness products, covid kits, clay items etc. What specially attracted me were learning opportunities for songs, slokas, yoga, discourses, spoken English and the like. . See the full catalog here:



Coming from the prestigious Dignity Foundation, one might hope that the vendors included are trustworthy and reliable. Besides buying things for personal use, you may refer to this as an excellent tool for sourcing gifts.
