Toockies Story Her name was Claudia, but everyone called her Toockie and she was loved. Each year, she sent everyone in her family a bundle of her special hand knit little scrubbing cloths. They were the perfect all-purpose scrubbers. To honor Toockie, Toockies niece , Anne Marie Strauss, wanted to share these long-lasting, toxin-free scrubbers with the world. How To Make a Difference Anne Marie searched for a way to recreate Toockies scrubbers and met Jaya Basu who was looking to build a dignified local economy to support the desperately poor women of a small village outside Calcutta, India. Today, Toockies are hand made using Fair Trade practices by women in that village who help support their families with pride. Each artisan has learned to write her name and each pack of Toockies cloths is hand signed ---giving the artisan a voice that makes her proud and present.
