Traditional skills pay their way for future generations

Charlotte di Vita continues to donate funds to the Trade plus Aid® charitable trust from her current ethical trading ventures: the Charlotte di Vita Collections™ of miniature enamel collectibles and the Trade plus Aid® Design Studio in South Africa, which designs and produces glass windchimes and traditional musical instruments.

The Charlotte di Vita Collections™ has assisted the revival of traditional 17th-century enamelling skills in China to provide some 400 workers with employment.

And by reviving these traditional skills, creating secure employment and ensuring decent working conditions, Charlotte and her trading partners have not only assisted these individuals to generate income and support their families but have also raised funds to donate to the Trade plus Aid® charitable trust to provide longterm funding for new development projects.
