Charitable Gift Giving

Until Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 11, I’ll be focusing on great gifts for Mom. Check back every two days for another fantastic gift.

Here’s another beautiful gift from NOVICA.

Wool shawl, ‘Sunshine’

This is a genuine, handloomed wool shawl that is a beautiful deep orchid color. The fringe is hand-tied and the shawl is hand-embroidered.

The purchase of this product will go directly to the rehabilitation of areas affected by the devastating earthquakes in India in 2001 and 2006. The organization that , working with NOVICA India, is the Self Employed Women Association, or SEWA. In addition to the immediate need of helping earthquake victims, the assocation since  1972 has been dedicated to helping underprivileged women become educated and empowered to sustain themselves and their families.

You can get it to Mom by Mother’s Day if you order by 4/30 and choose Priority Shipping.
