Scarf Sales - just in time for Christmas

A new shipment of our gorgeous GUATEMALAN SCARVES has arrived in time for the holidays.

Many of you have generously supported (by donations and by purchasing scarves) our Scarves for Stoves Project. We are a small group of committed volunteers who work in small impoverished villages in Guatemala, where we are having a very positive impact on the Mayan villagers' health and on the environment through the distribution of safe, fuel efficient stoves to replace open hearth fires, which cause major health problems such as respiratory illnesses, eye infections, burns to children - as well as massive deforestation.

Please pass the following scarf sale information on to all your friends.
