Made4Aid: Helping to support relief work in Cyprus

Welcome to Made4Aid

Made4aid is a project started in June 2009, raising money for charity through online sale of handcrafted items. The items for sale are donated by crafters and artists (amateur and professional) throughout the world or by anyone who has handmade items (new or vintage) to give. All proceeds go to charitable work and aid.

The organisation is run by volunteers and is entirely non-profit-making.

We are registered members of the National Council for Voluntary Organisations, membership number 11190.

Helping to support relief work in Cyprus

Agapi is a non-profit, volunteer organisation based in Cyprus, working with those in need, including refugees.

Members of the Agapi community have used items donated to the organisation to make some lovely items, which can all be bought in the made4aid shop on Etsy.

The items include jewellery, bags, cushion covers and a patchwork table runner - all are recycled / upcycled from donated items.

And all profits from the sales will go to support the ongoing work of Agapi - you can find out more about their work and activities on their facebook page . The organisation is registered in Cyprus as an NGO under Association No 4600.

So - have a quick look here at the lovely items, and pop over to Etsy for more detail, and if you want to buy something.
