Highlights to be proud of:
Kochi, India
In 2008, Organic Style chose to address the issue of families working near the mills not able to afford to send both sons and daughters to school. Organic Style agreed to purchase scrap remnants from the cotton mill where our sheets are manufactured and pay to have them sewn into bags that we use to package our sheets and other gift items. The agreement to purchase the scrap material produced enough funds to send 300 girls to school for the first time. We are proud to say that this project continues today. If you have purchased a product from Organic Style and it arrived in a cotton bag, you know you have helped educate a child.
Andean Highlands, Ecuador
This year, Organic Style added an outreach program aimed at helping the farmers in the Andean Highlands of Ecuador finance the purchase of flower seeds. Organic Style financed 100% of the seeds empowering these farmers to grow an exportable crop and make a fair livable return, all while preserving the local ecosystem.
Andean Highlands, Ecuador & Colombia
In 2010, Organic Style will expand their outreach program to include a no interest loan to finance the cost of certification. This program will further ensure the economic and environmental sustainability within the region.
