Hello, friends =)
I was wondering if you knew about some charities or foundations that offered postcards (ideally with international shipping available) to support them.
I know about one which is located in Thailand; they rescue gibbons. However, they are not sending international mail at the moment due to COVID restrictions. So I would like to see if there is any other charity or foundation that I could support through the purchase of some postcards from their online shops.
Thanks a lot!
Renata
P.S.: Just in case, these are the Gibbon Postcards
I also found this one The Black Sheep, but I can’t find any information on international shipping.
Hi Renata - here are 3 community social & economic projects run by people in the community to raise money for their community in Mali, Ghana & Tanzania. Hundreds of Postcrossers have received cards from them for a small donation.
They sell postcards in collections of 8-9, each of them have a distinct topic and all profit is donated to an organization that corresponds to the topic.
So far they are focusing on human and animal rights.
