A young Irish girl has taken it upon herself to help fellow children in Ukraine by making and selling her own Christmas cards.
Carlotta Belton, 7, from Dún Laoghaire, Dublin, has sold 360 cards so far and helped to raised almost €250 for Unicef Ireland's appeal for children in Ukraine.
After the outbreak of war in the country, in which Kharkiv was heavily attacked by Russian forces, Emil was able to return to Ireland and the classroom with Carlotta.The back of each card has a lovely message from Carlotta: "I'm Carlotta, and I'm seven years old and from Dublin. I designed this card for you to raise money for Unicef, because I want to help children in Ukraine."
