The project
Together with Fratello Project, we developed a canvas bag produced by "El Castillo" community. This bag was totally confectioned by Misael and Alicia, two members of El Castillo, and Wanderlust's logo was hand-embroidered with a local technique called "punto de cruz". Each canvas bag, when sold, raised funds that Wanderlust donated to Fratello to implement their Education, Health, and Productive programs in the community.
