This week and last, MagnetStreet employees took off early to head out to Feed My Starving Children {FMSC}- a Minnesota-based non-profit organization that, through the help of volunteers, packages food and ships it to starving children all around the world! If you've volunteered with FMSC before, then you know how incredibly humbling and gratifying this experience is.
I tell you this- not because of how awesome I think MagnetStreet is for caring {although I totally do} I tell you this because FMSC also has a fantastic marketplace. So, for couples looking for charitable wedding favor donation ideas or gift ideas that are eco-friendly, sustainable and help fulfill desperate global needs- you don't have to look any further! From coffee and clothing, to home décor and jewelry ... check out the marketplace at FMSC.
Here are two handmade ideas that I saw in the marketplace and fell in love with:
Hand-embroidered note cards- made by women in Haiti. These cards are so beautiful and reasonably priced!
Jewelry made from recycled magazines Ugandan women cut recycled magazines into strips and roll them into beads. So colorful, fun, durable and unique!
Don't let the hairnets scare you! Check out FMSC to learn more about everything from donating to volunteering to partnerships and more.
