Friends of Custom Vintage:

Here you'll find a list of links to our friends, charities we support, and other wonderful people & pages we love so much we have to share!

Charities we Support:

Painted Dog Conservation Inc.

Painted Dog Conservation Incorporated, Australia, was established in October 2003 to provide support for the Painted Dog Research Project which

operates across Zimbabwe and has its operations based outside the Hwange National Park opposite the Hwange Parks airport.

From 2007 they have increased their level of support to include projects in Zambia and Namibia.

Australian Orangutan Project

The Australian Orangutan Project supports many orangutan conservation organizations. AOP is a non profit organisation staffed by volunteers to raise funds and collect donations for Orangutan Conservation and habitat protection. Other than part-time administrative support, there are no salaries paid to AOP volunteers whose services are donated. Therefore a very high percentage of your donations go straight to organisations involved in the active welfare of Orangutans and on habitat protection

Choose Cruelty Free Association of Australia

Choose Cruelty Free (CCF) is an independent, non-profit organisation. CCF surveys companies which claim to sell products that have not been tested on animals

and do not contain cruelly-derived ingredients and accredits companies which satisfy CCF's criteria.

Tajahs' Treasures on Etsy - My little side project #1 an Etsy store filled with some hand made accessories, hand painted shoes, jewellery and artwork. I created this Etsy store to put those random items which didn't quite fit into Custom Vintage or Custom Gothic, plus a few that do to mix things up a bit! I'll also be adding handmade clothing here once my clothing line gets underway... stay tuned for info on this one!
