SUpiNAna Pyjama: JOYFULL JIM-JAMS
Formally The Sri Lanka Card Project
The Card Project has been running for 20 years in Sri Lanka, starting in the refugee camps following the asian tsunami and then moving into community centres. The project fundraises for disadvantaged kids in Sri Lanka through art and play.
Creating greeting cards from the kids ‘ artwork to raise funds for their essential needs, and some fun stuff too. Here are some of the beautiful, messy murals and activities we have done in the past.
Buy Cards Here - 100% of the profit from card sales goes to support the children in the Sri Jinanada Children’s home
Supi Nana is a new stage for The Card Project - While still selling cards to raise funds for the kids at the Sri Jinananda children’s home, we are excited to introduce these new, joyful, unisex Sri Lankan cotton handloom kids' Pyjamas to raise funds for communities in need.
Currently, we will be supporting Flood relief efforts following devastating floods caused by Cyclone Ditwah
Made from beautiful, high-quality handloom, woven by skilled artisans, in Kalenyia ( just outside Colombo)
Then the fabric is taken to be sewn by our friends at another inspiring project, Manacare Foundation - Hopes and Dreams Village, based in South West Sri Lanka. This project provides vocational skills and employment to the local community, alongside education, physiotherapy, and social care to physically challenged adults and children.

Pyjamas -
The outcome is beautiful, colourful, high-quality, unisex cotton pyjamas with coconut shell buttons that will last for many growth spurts and hand-me-downs to come.
Due to the nature of the chequed handloom fabric, coconut shell, every set is unique in its colour way, and each set comes with its own drawstring gym-style bag, with a separate little pocket for a toothbrush and a teddy or book
Made ethically with our brilliant partner projects mentioned above in Sri Lanka, while raising funds for communities in need.
20% of the sales of Pyjamas go directly to support the Flood Relief Effort in Sri Lanka, with The Tea Project Charity providing aid for flood victims Kandy
