Help save the bees

Since the beginning of March monies from my handmade card sales are being collected for donation to Friends of the Earth in support of their Craft for your planet fundraising efforts. Although I haven't really had time to promote what I'm up to so far I've raised £86 against my target of £150.

Continuing efforts this month, I'm focussing on increasing awareness of specific issues and helping to save the bees is high on the list. 

For Easter I've created an alternative Easter egg activity/gift for the kids in my community which will hopefully get them involved in growing some flowers to help save the bees.

 

Take a look at the Friends of the Earth site, sign a petition or two or even make a donation. 

A donation of £5 towards the Bee Saver Kit will provide you with wildflower seeds to grow, a garden planner and plenty of other info to help with saving bees. If you have young children then there is a Planet Protector Pack containing an activity handbook and a pack of seeds, which will keep them occupied as well as teach them about how they can help protect the planet.

Every little helps. Even my painted rocks are helping spread the message... I'm hiding these out and about, but if you want one for yourself they are just £1 (can post out if needed - normal charges apply)  and monies will go in the pot for my Craft for your planet target.

In case you need a little note card I had a few eggs left over so have created these - just £1 each and the money all goes to Friends of the Earth. Normal postage costs apply. Just email me at jadedcrafter@gmail.com.

Thanks in advance for your support.
