These eco-friendly and incredibly cute bags are made by a women's co-op in the Philippines using recycled foil juice packs that are purchased through a network of local school children. Most of these women are their family's main breadwinner. These bags help to improve lives and elevate these families out of poverty. Indestructible by nature, foil packs could clog landfills for thousands of years. Using clever designs that combine the material's strength & brilliant colors, the co-op helps keep the environment clean via this cool and unique method of recycling.

My unit just returned from a short trip to the Phillipines, the women there could really use our help. As long as you're looking for ways to be eco-friendly, why not do do something with double the impact by purchasing these bags.

BUy them for your kids, your friends, your co-workers. Heck start a dinner or lunch club and use these bags to transport the food. The possibilities are endless and you can feel good about investing in something positive for a change.
