Caroline's Promise Christmas Open House
Unique Gifts, Surprisingly Low Prices, Worthy Cause, Free gift wrap!
Sure, you could buy your sister another bottle of her favorite perfume. You
could give your kid's teachers apple-shaped note pad holders to add to their
collection. And, we're sure Aunt Millie would appreciate the hand made doggie
sweater for her precious Fifi.
But, what if this year, instead of just giving gifts, you gave stories? Each
unique, fair-trade item we have to offer comes with the story of the person who
made it. Widows whose "magazine bead" necklaces are providing the income they
need to survive. Single mothers whose hand-crafted purses and jewelry are
putting food on the table and their kids through school. Stunning
mother-of-pearl jewelry made by young women who have been rescued from human
trafficking. Or, the "chip bag" earrings made by a group of school-aged boys who
are paying for their own education. These are just a few examples of the dozens
of one-of-a kind items that will be offered at the Open House, each one made by
people from around the world who are breaking the cycle of poverty, oppression
and injustice with their handiwork.
There is no doubt, your friends & family will love these gifts with a purpose
and you will love the great feeling that comes along with "Smarter Shopping".
Prices range from $5 - $38
Help us celebrate Christmas and learn how you can help us reclaim hope for
orphans! Invite your friends! Door Prizes will be given!

First of all I want to thank the Groves Family who sponsored me during my primary school period because thanks to them I was able to complete primary school. I am also very grateful because although I did not meet my sponsors, I appreciated them very much for the support and help they contributed in my life. It was a great blessing that Caroline's Promise can contribute great things in the life of a person. The experience I had was totally great. I got to know places thanks to them and they also showed me their love through letters (letters that I still have), gifts and financial aid. I would really like to meet and know how my sponsors are and meet them in person and thank them personally. And well, I think that these kinds of experiences make you grow as a person in all aspects and how wonderful that those kinds of people exist, s...
