The ashes from Eyjafjallajökull volcano, on sale at nammi.is since the eruption grounded flights all over Europe, is popular as ever and by now over $7500 have been donated to ICESAR (www.icesar.is), the non-profit organization of rescue teams that have been providing security services and assisting in cleaning and other tasks in the farmlands near the volcano.
