The wrapping paper was designed by Megaphone vendors as part of our 'Wrap Up Hope' campaign, which offers an opportunity for you to give gifts with meaning this holiday season. 

When you use Megaphone's wrapping paper (even better if it's to wrap up a Hope in Shadows calendar), you're directly supporting an individual experiencing poverty. We think that's a holiday message that should be shared with others.

Megaphone vendor Carmen created the Christmas Tree ornaments paper, one of two designs in the November issue. She says it felt great having her illustration chosen and enjoys getting into the holiday spirit. And she's been doing an incredible job working as a Megaphone vendor. 

"Selling Megaphone has helped me have a job and have something stable," she says. "[It also means] I can afford better food. You have the extra couple bucks to go get whatever it is that will help you."

This holiday season, give the gift of hope by getting your holiday wrapping paper and Hope in Shadows calendar from Megaphone vendors like Carmen.

And please support our work by making a donation to Hope in Shadows and Megaphone's vendor program.
