and patterns of their clothes.

CHRYSALIS OF HOPE is a mission to provide the wings of
transformation to the displaced children living in struggle.
We offered 30% of all our proceeds on the customized
butterflies to Malaak, a non profit organization that serves and strives to support education for refugees living in camp settlement in the Northern region of Lebanon.
May we help them to remain resilient, remind them to never lose hope and make them believe in a better tomorrow.
