Why Help Refugees?

Please take a moment to watch the short 4 minute video below. It explains how we got involved with volunteering overseas and changed our lives. You can read my daily posts about our months of volunteer work in Calais, France (March, 2016) and Lesvos and Athens, Greece, (Feb. and March, 2018) at joannaylor.blogspot.com

We sell handmade, unique gifts and 50% of sales are used to purchase essential items for refugees, such as food, coal for heating, diapers, tents, blankets, shoes, clothes, medicine and so much more for refugees and their families.

I just finished volunteering in Lesvos, Greece at an organization called WWBT (When We Band Together). I worked with refugee women and their children from many countries (Afghanistan, Syria, Sudan, Eritrea, Iran, and many more.) I was able to purchase for this organization needed supplies for art, children’s toys, cups, mugs, spoons in quantity for the meals served. Thank you to those who have purchased a painting or hat, so we can continue this work.

Blessings,
