  • Cherish had high environmental standards for it’s vendors….

    Cherish had high environmental standards for it’s vendors.  Being a paper store we have to really work to make sure that our products are earth friendly.  Naturally ecojot has always been our one of our favorite vendors.  With journals made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper and inks and glues that are bio-degradable they take all the guilt our of loving paper.  And they don’t compromise style or fun.  There journals are so lovely to look at that they inspire you to create great words and sketches within. 

    But now they have taken it a step further.  They are giving away a sketch book to a child in a developing country every time you purchase a journal for yourself.  We cherish companies that think it all through.  In need of a new journal or sketch book come on by to see the new shipment of ecojots.  They just arrived.  And with such good doing I am sure they wont be around long. 

    ecojot’s mission statement:

    Ecojot® is a beautiful range of Canadian made 100% post-consumer recycled paper products which are perfect for today’s eco savvy user.

    • . We use acid-free, processed chlorine free paper & board.
    • . All our inks & glues are vegetable based, therefore bio-degradable.
    • . No new trees are used to make our paper & the paper mill is powered by biogas harnessed from a nearby landfill.
    • . All our protective packaging is corn-based. Furthermore, we try and use as much locally made raw material as possible.

    more about their “give campaign”

    Ecojot’s “Buy One, We Give One” campaign is our company’s new business model committed to directly advocate children’s arts and literacy in developing countries.

    In many poor areas, young students cannot afford school supplies, nor are they provided them. In an effort to equip children in need with basic school supplies, Ecojot will donate a notebook for every Ecojot journal, jumbo journal and sketchbook purchased!!!

    Ecojot understands that the success of the campaign is dependent on ensuring that the notebooks are delivered directly to the correct recipients. Our first shipment was sent in a sealed container via the Ve’ahavta KinderKits Program, along with medical supplies already destined for Zimbabwe. We will use the same method for future shipments, and in addition send boxes with teachers and volunteers travelling to areas of need.
