Laska (Caress) Charity Store is based on a simple and widespread in the developed world idea: some people gratuitously bring something that they don’t need any more while the others buy it. The children clothes and the profit generated by the second-hand selling go for charity purposes to orphanages and resettlement centers, financing of social and urbanistic projects in Kiev. The store sells a bunch of various creative things: clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, furniture, books, vinyls, old-fashioned cameras and eco-friendly hand-made rugs from recycled materials.
