We Are Planting Trees Around The World

As one of the leading producers of designer playing cards, we recognize our impact on the environment. We strive for sustainable manufacturing and materials and encourage this in our own values and practices. In fact, all of the cards we produce are manufactured in the United States. The paper comes from sustainable forests, and the cards are printed with environmentally friendly water-based ink. But this isn’t enough.
As a way to give back, we have partnered with One Tree Planted in an initiative to plant 1 million trees every year. And since May 2017, we have donated 1% of our revenue to plant trees in Africa, Asia, North America, and South America for the reforestation of our planet.
The accumulated donations are processed quarterly and fund various reforestation projects around the world. Every dollar donated helps plant one tree, and we don’t anticipate stopping.
As one of our heroes, John Muir, once said, “The battle we have fought, and are still fighting for the forests is a part of the eternal conflict between right and wrong, and we cannot expect to see the end of it. …So we must count on watching and striving for these trees, and should always be glad to find anything so surely good and noble to strive for.”
We stand for the trees and the natural beauty of our planet. As consumers of its resources, planting new trees is just one action we’re taking to leave this planet better than we found it.
