About The Globe of Goodwill

ABOUT THE GLOBE

The Globe of Goodwill is a beautiful work of art and a delightful collector's piece, but its contents give it its true value - love and friendship.

The Globe is a blown-glass sphere, with a ribbon of red - the colour of Christmas and affection. The Globe is handmade and every edition is limited. No two Globes are exactly the same but each of them is beautiful in its own way - just like every child of the world.

All proceeds will be donated to work for the benefit of children and other young people with disabilities. The name of The Globe is therefore symbolic of that which it represents.

God's blessing goes with this beautiful piece.

Where benevolence and affection are at work, the light of God and His angels will shine.
May that light shine upon you.
