This wallet is made by CONSERVE. CONSERVE is a non-governmental organization located in India that has created a unique and innovative business that not only is able to employ traditionally marginalized people at a fair living wage, but is also removing millions of plastic bags from New Delhi's landfills every year. CONSERVE uses its profits to build schools, provide meal programs for local workers and families in need, and pays three to four times the local wage to its employees to provide better living wages and opportunities.

NOTE: No Two Wallets Are Exactly Alike -- since the wallets are produced from individual sheets of Handmade Recycled Plastic, color patterns may vary slightly from the photos.

CONSERVE also makes the stunning utensil holders for the bamboo utensils we're selling here.
