Helping Handbags Supports Children In Need
Written by Urban Sherp on January 11th, 2010
Who: Helping Handbags; London, U.K.
What: The Tabitha
Where: Give a Granny – $240 in aubergine or carmel
Why: So no, this is not the most eco-friendly handbag on the market, but it is one with an incredibly noble mission. Helping Handbags donates 100% of the proceeds of the Tabitha bag to the The Bulgarian Abandoned Children’s Trust’s Baba Programme, which pairs disabled Bulgarian orphans with surrogate baba’s (grandmothers) to care for these oft neglected children who have been removed from society and placed in institutions.
So not only will you be investing in a gorgeous high-quality, limited edition (only 500 made in each color), you’ll also be investing in the welfare of children in desperate need of the love from a ‘baba’. We love the scalloped detailing, the rich colors, the laid-back hobo silhouette, the studded tassel embellishment and the contrasting striped liner representative of the colors of the Bulgarian flag, but most of all love that the profit from each bag equals 60 hours that a child gets to spend with their Baba…
