These days, at Indiegogo platform, startup project of a group of young socially responsible entrepreneurs from Serbia has been ongoing – for evry bracelet a customer buyers, they plant a tree.
Ivan Brkljac made a fashion brand from an idea, he decided with his friends to have in his business model incorporated social responsibility. Through donation campaign, you get Arbo bracelet and planted tree. Along with a bracelet, a donor gets a unique code which, when entered at the website, shows exactly where his or her tree was planted and offers an option to leave a personal message for every bought bracelet.
For every bracelet bought from the
Balkans, a tree is planted in Croatia or Serbia, which depends on customer’s
wish and globally for every bracelet bought in India through partners We Forest
