Social enterprise Siin & Sääl opened an e-shop
The Estonian Refugee Council's social enterprise Siin & Sääl opened an e-shop selling high-quality handicraft products from masks to coffee blends and cookies. The products are made by refugees and people with a migrant background living in Estonia, in addition, handmade masks made by Syrian refugees living in Lebanon are for sale.
“Inspired by this year's Christmas bazaar experience, we decided to leave the e-store permanently open. In the virtual shop you can buy beautiful handicrafts, delicious tea and coffee blends and snacks remotely and safely. In this way, every person living in Estonia can support the refugees and people with a migrant background without leaving home,” said Anu Viltrop, Head of Support Services of Estonian Refugee Council.
In the e-shop, for example, you can find Turkish and Syrian tea and coffee blends and cookies made by the chefs of Siin & Sääl, sauces from Venezuela made by Milagros, and cutting boards made by Konstantin from Russia.
In addition, the first products of the social enterprise The Master Peace, created in cooperation with the Estonian Refugee Council and the Lebanese humanitarian organization Sawa for Development & Aid, have reached the store: unique handmade masks. The masks made in the Bekaa Valley are sewn by Syrian refugees living in Lebanon, for whom the social enterprise offers both an important opportunity for self-fulfillment and a dignified income. The masks have been designed by Syrian Oum Fawzi and Lebanese designer Nour Daher.
