They carry the plant-powered Kevin Murphy professional hair care line. All Kevin Murphy hair products are sulphate and paraben free and not tested on animals.

This place is a keeper!

A wonderful new program…

People Protecting Animals & Their Habitats is providing children around the world with an opportunity to plant a tree for Earth Day 2011.

Adults like trees, children like trees, it seems that trees are one thing everyone can agree upon. They provide oxygen, filter the air, clean the soil, store carbon, protect us from the elements, conserve water, make our cities quieter, give us fruit and provide animals with cover and food. Life is simply impossible without trees.

Starting this year (April 2011) People Protecting Animals & Their Habitats – PATH Inc., will annually provide children with the resources needed to plant trees in their communities. PATH will also provide participating classrooms with desperately needed educational materials about the effects of deforestation and the importance of protecting the planet, the one habitat we all share.

People Protecting Animals & Their Habitats is excited to be working with schools and after-school programs in India, Israel, Nicaragua, Papua New Guinea, South Africa and the USA! You can learn more about the children participating and help them plant a tree in their community by accessing the link below.
