New Card by Kaushal Das

FairMail’s teenage photographers from Peru and India have worked really hard on the pictures for two new card collections with a total of more then 125 new cards!

The biggest part is now available on post-, greeting- and midicards in FairMail’s on-line webshop.

But there are also 30 new FairMail images available to design your own real FairMail card online (even on your smart phone) via Greetz (click her for German and here for English Greetz sites). Greetz takes care of printing and sending your card to anywhere in the world! Why not give it a try?

On the back of all of the cards you can find the picture, name, age and e-mail of the teenager who took the picture on your card on who you support directly. Because 50% of the profit that FairMail makes on every card goes directly to the teenager who took that picture and can invest the money in his or her own education.

New Card collection from Peru and India

Saturday, December 11th, 2010

II200In the new year another 22 new FairMail cards, 1 calender and 5 bookmarks have become available. Because the cards from India are so popular we developed a special giftset with 10 colourfull Indian pictures. The giftset “Incredible India” is not only fun to give away as a present, but also handy to have at home in case you need a card. That way you always have what you need when it is someone’s birthday, when someone is going away, needs some support or to say just how special the other one is for you.

There is also a new limited edition 2011 kalender available in our webshop. Just as the first collection of 5 colourfull bookmarks with writing space.

In the new collection of 33 cards are also the first cards by new photographers Pasquel, Jorge, Patricia and Resham. They too have started saving up for their dreams for the future.

Photographer Cinthia builds her own future

Friday, December 10th, 2010

IMG_0015Good news from Peru about  Cinthia! As one of the first FairMail photographers she has now grown to be a source of inspiration for the new generation of photographers who can see what they can acheive by taking great pictures for FairMail. With the 4335,= euro Cinthia earned with the sale of her cards she started a three year long course to become a tour guide. The last few FairMail photography trips she did her practical period with us to practice what she has learned so far.

Besides her education whe also used the money she earned to buy a watertank and build a new kitchen (see picture) for her family and to buy a computer and build a private bedroom for herself! So no longer does she have to share her bed with her sister. A nice idea now she is a young adult and no longer a teenager!

In May 2009 Cinthia turned 19 and thus ended her active career as a photographer for FairMail. But because of her talent, leadership and sense of responsility she got promoted to assistant manager of FairMail Peru. Due to the rapid growth of FairMail Peru our current manager Renato can use all the help he can get! Keep it up Cinthia, we are very proud of you!

Record earnings for FairMail teenagers in 2009!

Friday, December 3rd, 2010

elmer200The year 2009 was another very lucrative year for the teenage photographers from FairMaiPeru and FairMail India. With their 50% of the profit from the sale of their pictures, their health care insurance and wage for the packing of the cards the 27 teenagers earned almost 10.000 euro in 2009. A new record!

Since the start of FairMail inJuly 2006 the teenagers have earned almost 28.000 euros together. Also in 2009 David was the photographer with the highest earnings. Since his 19th birthday last yearFebruary he no longer works for FairMail but as a heavy equipment operator in a mine (he financed his degree with FairMail earnings). But he keeps earning money from the sale of his phot’s he made while he was still working as FairMail photographer.

David’s number one rankingis being challenged though by young gun Elmer, also fromPe ru. Especially with his Christmas cards he has been very succesfull.

For an exact overview of the earnings per teenagers you can view their personal page on the FairMail website. For example click here to go to David’s page.

Staar er op de shoplocator nog geen FairMail verkooppunt vermeld jou in de buurt? Klik dan hierop voor het overzicht van beschikbare Valentijnskaarten in onze webshop te bekijken en te bestellen.

Valentijn staat tegenwoordig weliswaar vooral in het teken van de commercie maar het is toch altijd leuk om van een ander te merken dat je bijzonder bent voor diegene? Met het sturen van een FairMail kaart laat je zien dat je bovendien ook nog fairliefd bent op fairtrade.
