Ten per cent of profits generated by these handcrafts go towards
the support of projects helping poor people in Colombia.
 Our aims are as follows:
-
To generate funds to help provide basic medical care
and education for those otherwise unable to access it.
-
To help a non profit making organisation in Colombia called
Fundacion Ninos del Alba. They can be contacted on fundnialba@yahoo.com.
They
are a group of people that pick children up from the streets
or receive children which their parents can not take care of,
and give them education, health, food, clothes, therapeutic
help, a place to live and most of all love and a family. At
the moment they are taking care of 23 boys and girls, all of
them have been in some way mistreated. The age range at present
is from 3 months to 13 years old, and they will have a permanent
home until they are 18. They do not have any economic support
from their government, their only income is from charitable
donations.
In time we hope to provide these children with marketable skills
to help give them a future.
