The proceeds from the sale of this handcrafted ornament will help us purchase a real live alpaca from the World Vision Gift Catalogue. The gift of an alpaca will help to generate a more sustainable income for a family or community in our Global Community. As of Jan. 1st, we have sold 17 ornaments. We currently have raised $119.00 to put towards a $250. alpaca in the gift catalogue. By purchasing one of our alpaca ornaments, you are giving the gift that gives twice.

All the best for health and happiness for 2018!
