Pura Vida Bracelets Supports Artistans in Costa Rica

— July 28, 2012 — Social Good
Pura Vida Bracelets sells handmade, original friendship bracelets crafted by local artisans in Costa Rica. Each of the colourful, woven accessories helps to support the artisans who craft them and provides them with a viable way to make an income.

The company is also dedicated to keeping the oceans and beaches of the world clean and free of garbage and pollutants. Through a partnership with One Percent for the Planet, the company donates 1 per cent of its proceeds to the Surfrider Foundation to help take care of the world’s oceans and oceanfronts.

They also have a special charity line, and a portion of the sales of each of these bracelets goes toward causes such as Breast Cancer and Autism research.
