ETK on Green Global Travel
The team over at Green Global Travel recently contacted us to do a bag review. After reading what they are all about and chatting with their Co-Founder Bret Love for a bit, it seemed like a perfect like-minded match up. Eco + Social responsibility wrapped up in a bag review.
Meaningful connections
Tribe member Megan Harrod just shared her recent Tumblr Entry with us, which served as a humble reminder of why we do what we do; to create meaningful connections with people around the world. We couldn't be more proud that our colorful bags and mission to promote cultural awareness were able to resonate with Megan and her family on such an emotional level.Â
Life saving soap
Jack’s Soap has a simple mission: save children through the simple prevention of bacteria, with soap. The company is achieving its mission through a buy one, give one model—for every bar of soap purchased, the social business gives a bar of soap to a child in need.
ETK on top of the world
Tribe member Joe Culhane just sent in this photo with his Ghana 7 Pack atop Multnomah Falls in Oregon and it was just too cool not to share! Joe is a proud father of a 4 year old whip smart future acrobat and is a member of non-profit 4-UP (4 Unity Project), which is founded by Medicine For The People. Joe is also rumored to be one hell of a freestyle walker. One more thing you should know about him is, if you plan on sleeping in and Joe is in the same house as a didgeridoo…… Lock the door!Â
ETK in Mexico
Customer and Tribe Member Rachel Johnston just visited Mexico on her 7th volunteer mission with Circle of Concern where she helped set up medical, dental, and vision clinics in two remote villages in and around Bucerias. They had team members from the US, Canada, and other parts of Mexico, along with the locals all joining in. She worked with the kids' programs and did it in style. Check out this proud pic of Rachel with her Guatemala 1 backpack. Nice customization on the shoulder strap!Â

Shopping consciously is something that is incredibly important to us, not only as a brand but also as individuals.Â
Even if you buy just one person a gift this year that is sustainability made, has a positive environmental impact, and well-being for others in mind, you are making a positive impact. Small changes matter! There is a shift happening in our world and as a collective species, humans are becoming more aware of their impact, and that is incredible!Â
