Eco-friendly cards with a message expressing our gratitude for your contribution to our campaign. When planted in the earth, they grow Indian saffron marigolds. The paper is hand-made using recycled newsprint sheets and sprinkled with dry flower seeds.
Munnar Masks:
Available in 6 colors, these masks are exclusively made for our campaign. They're hand-woven using 100% organic, naturally dyed, and locally grown cotton. Each mask is made by women weavers in the Chendamangalam district of Kerala, through WESTxEAST's collaboration with the Save The Loom Project. Save The Loom provides sustained work for local women artisans who make custom textile products, thus preserving craft clusters native to India.
