Evergreen Hand-Cut Cards
The Evergreen Card Company seeks to serve both urban and rural families needing extra income, as well as to touch them in a tangible way with the love of God. The ancient Chinese paper cutting art has been modified to appeal to the Western eye and is marketed in the West. Proceeds from the sale of these hand-cut cards are used to further develop this project, and to assist low income families in urban and rural areas.
