THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.  CONGRATS, ANASTASIA, YOU ARE THE WINNER!

Sure, wide-ruled (or college-ruled) spiral notebooks have their place in the world (especially in August when back-to-school shopping is in full swing), but Ecojot’s kids notebooks are truly special:  eye-popping cover designs, and ample sheets in-between of 70lb, 100% post-consumer recycled paper for doodling, etching, sketching, and writing to their heart’s content.

Canadian-based Ecojot is eco-conscious in seemingly every way:  All paper & board is acid-free and chlorine-free; All inks and glues are vegetable-based and bio-degradable; Protective packaging is corn-based and made from locally-made raw materials; No new trees are used to make their paper.

What makes the brand more lovable is their recently launched business model committed to directly advocate children’s arts and literacy in developing countries.  Through their “Buy One, We Give One” campaign,  Ecojot partners with three organizations (Ve’ahavta, Free the Children, The Stephen Leacock Foundation for Children) to donate a notebook for every Ecojot journal and sketchbook purchased -  targeting poor areas around the world where young students cannot afford and are not provided basic school supplies.  Fun and fabulous, kind and compassionate, what’s not to love?
