On Friday 30th November, Sonrisa will be selling gifts from CENIT at the Canning House Ethical Christmas Fair, near Victoria station in Central London.

It’s a great event, giving you chance to stock up on all the fair trade products you could possibly shake a stick at.

While you browse Christmas ornaments, gifts and cards being sold by various South American charities you can listen to live music and eat some great food.

As the festive season approaches, how better to show your support for the underprivileged children of Ecuador than by purchasing hand-crafted cards made at the centre for the Working Girl (CENIT)?

The beautiful cards, made from 100% recycled paper and flower petals, have gone on sale in covent Garden, central London.

All the profits from the sale of the cards finance the health, education and social programmes CENIT runs to help underprivileged families in Quito, particularly working children.

Some of the high school children who attend classes at CENIT help to produce the cards at a highly successful card workshop run by an artist at the centre.

All the scrap paper from CENIT is recycled on site and processed into a beautiful, high-quality paper that is used to make the cards.

A selection of designs are available to buy at St Pauls Church in Covent Garden, which is in the main market area.
