Laga Handbags, a manufacturer of authentically crafted handbags, is pleased to announce exclusive showing of their new line of handbags at Condo Boutique available by appointment only.

Irvine, CA March 18, 2008 — Laga Handbags is pleased to announce the Laga Handbags exclusive showing of their latest selections, styles and colors. Visitors will save 31% on all purchases, at the same time helping tsunami survivors of Aceh province, Sumatra, Indonesia.“We firmly believe that it is possible to feel good by doing good — a statement that is at the very heart of Laga Handbags,” says Roy van Broekhuizen, Co-Founder of Laga Designs International. “We’ve received an overwhelming response to our fine products and we’re confident of seeing much more positive feedback at our latest showing.”

The Condo Boutique showroom is available by appointment only and is located at 40 Summerfield, Irvine, California.

Laga Designs’ slogan is, appropriately, “Handbags with Heart,” and a generous portion of all profits goes towards a cause very close to van Broekhuizen’s heart — helping Banda Aceh families get back on their feet after their livelihoods were destroyed by the 2004 Asian Tsunami. Van Broekhuizen, who just finished his 19th trip to Indonesia since January 2005, found that he was unable to leave without setting up a more long-lasting, sustainable stream of income for Banda Aceh’s residents.

Laga handbags are durable, distinctive and elegant, made by village artisans whom van Broekhuizen discovered throughout villages in Aceh. Even the name “Laga” comes from the Acehnese word Lagak, which means “beautiful” in the Acehnese dialect.

“We formed Laga Designs International to provide income for those who lost their livelihood, but what transpired is much, much more,” says Louise van Broekhuizen, Roy’s wife. “We developed a personal relationship with the people of Aceh, and we left our hearts in their homes.”
