How does my purchase assist others? We are glad you asked! Eco Manifesto selects a range of products from producers who are aiming to meet basic needs for themselves , their family and their community. Many of these producers are organised in a cooperative or other social enterprise where people come before profit. Through our web store we provide a retail outlet for these enterprises with the aim of increasing their chances of success and relaying their story to educate and inspire our customers.
In addition, each year Eco Manifesto will convert our surplus into financial support for a selection of vital services to youth at risk . Our new web site, to be launched in March 2013 will provide further details - it is an exciting development and we look forward to your support.
