As well as producing beautiful, design-led, sustainable stationery, over the last 18 months, our friends at VENT for Change have been working on an exciting collaboration… “Following a chance meeting at Top Drawer 2020 with Cycle of Good, who were also exhibiting a wonderful collection of recycled, reclaimed and sustainable products, it was clear our two organisations shared many ethical and social philosophies. I could see Cycle of Good were clearly doing amazing work in Malawi with their education projects and we had materials and supplies they could utilise in a positive and practical way. Having exchanged email addresses at the show in February 2020, just before the pandemic hit, we donated 10,000 of our recycled pencils to Cycle of Good for their Krizevac Project, building and running schools and educating children across Malawi.

In July 2021, once the worst of the pandemic was over and transport and logistics were running more freely, we sent a new consignment, this time many hundreds of notebooks to be used by children in Cycle of Good education projects. Both Cycle of Good and ourselves offer ranges of sustainable, recycled or repurposed products that are perfect for the conscientious consumer. With truly inspiring back stories both organisations understand the importance of sustained and quality education and the changes that can bring to the lives of millions of children, their families and communities for generations to come.” Evan Lewis, VENT for Change Founder

“Donations of education materials such as the pencils and notebooks gifted by VENT for Change mean we can spend our money elsewhere; on teachers, schools and other essentials to help provide children with the education they deserve.” Commented Zoe Kasiya, Cycle of Good UK Manager.
