ELEPHANTEA

elephantea was founded by the entrepreneurial father-daughter team of Ron and Shani Atapattu. Born and raised in Sri Lanka and descended from generations of tea growers and elephant activists, Ron exposed his daughters to his love of Sri Lankan culture and his commitment to preserving its beauty for generations to come. After Shani got married, Ron was even more committed to passing along the preservation torch so that the family's Sri Lankan roots would continue... elephantea's mission is to not only a create a unique selection of Ceylon's finest teas but to raise awareness of the plight of Sri Lanka's wild roaming elephants. Proceeds from every purchase of elephantea are used to support the varied elephant conservation programs in her father's native country of Sri Lanka.
