We stumbled across this amazing charity at the Merchandise World exhibition and have partnered with them to support them in their endeavours; to give surplus promotional products a second life.
Their charity began on a dusty schoolyard in Malawi, where they – strangers from the UK – set out to on a charity deployment to end child hunger. Instead, we learned that brilliant minds were waiting to be unleashed, held back only by a lack of basic tools: pencils to capture thoughts, paper to chart dreams, backpacks to carry hope. Returning home, we couldn’t unsee the contrast between overflowing stationery aisles here and empty desks there. Out of that conviction, Pepala – “paper” in Chichewa – was born.
We now save samples and any surplus promotional products to give to this charity, to help the charity give every child the tools to write their own story.
