Linking Business Needs to Local and Global Resources

Thank you for your interest in our On-line Store!

Unique wildlife handicrafts to decorate
your world and support the planet

• Collectibles
• Gifts
• Souvenirs

When our new store launches later this season, a link in the box above will take you directly to a new on-line shopping experience.

What will be in the Store:

Our handicrafts are well-made, affordable, fair-trade* items that can be used as collectables, decorations, gifts, or souvenirs. Items will have a wildlife related theme tied to the charitable activities of one or more conservation organizations.

What makes our items distinct from others you might find:

• high production and artistic quality.
• different from most articles available in the United States.
• direct tie to wildlife and nature objects found in the country of origin.
• diversity of product types—from realistic depictions, to stylized renderings, to works done in a historic or traditional manner.

How your purchase benefits international and domestic conservation efforts:

Our fair-trade, import handicrafts are produced exclusively for our international partners and EECG and are available exclusively through our store. Your purchase generates funds to support the non-profit programs of EECG in the United States and internationally. A secondary but important purpose is to assist local and international organizations in fundraising for their nonprofit conservation and education activities. Items are obtained in-country at fair prices in order to support local artisans, women's coops, and/or other worthy groups and individuals.

What we mean by "fair-trade":

* Fair-trade refers to business relationships that contribute to sustainable development and improved trading conditions for producers and organizations globally. The fair-trade philosophy supports the security and economic self-sufficiency of in-country artisans and promotes greater equity in international commerce.

EECG strives to assure the genuine origin as well as the production materials and methods of all products. Under our corporate mission, it is essential that producers are fairly paid for their work and for the sales of their products to help reward and support unknown artists or those from poorer families
