What is Fair Trade?
Dove or Family of Doves, banana leaf card from Rwanda(currently sold out)
Banana leaf greeting cards

These cards were created by young men who were orphans of the 1994 genocide.  The money made from the sales of these cards helps this Rwanda group teach others card making skills... and helps provide adult and after school employment opportunities.

The cards measure 4.75" by 6.75" and they come with a slighter darker colored envelope.  They are all individually wrapped and stamped "Handmade in Rwanda".
