GIVING BACK, DOING GOOD
Dunstan Elephant Conservation
Like each personally designed boardshort, each piece of paper we print customer designs on in our tailoring atelier is made by hand and unique. And, this paper we purchase from our Sri Lanka supplier results in a percentage of the proceeds going to the Millennium Elephant Foundation (MEF) – affiliated with the World Society for Protection of Animals (WSPA). The MEF works to improve the care, protection and treatment of elephants in Sri Lanka by providing a place of sanctuary complete with full medical services.
So, every boardshort we produce contributes to the care of a magnificent elephant, which are unfortunately being driven to extinction by the loss of their natural habitat.
Dunstan Clean Beach Initiative
Every pair of Dunstan's purchased, also contributes to Dunstan's Clean Beach Initiative for Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka has 830 miles of stunning coastline. Our objective is simple, we want the best surfed beaches in Sri Lanka, to not only be the cleanest beaches in Sri Lanka, but also the cleanest beaches in the world. A lot of the pollution on some Sri Lanka beaches can all be collected and recycled.
So, every pair of shorts purchased gives us the resources -- one boardshort at a time -- to hire local volunteers to clean the beaches daily.
