In addition to the organizations and non-profits we donate to, our store is also the “home base” for our own non-profit: The Leo Elison Peace Education Fund. Run by owner Raphael Elison and his siblings, the Leo Elison Peace Education Fund was named for their late father Professor Leo Elison, who worked to provide quality peace education to young children in the slums of New Delhi, India. All donated funds go to directly supporting the Life Spring School he opened in New Delhi. Tote bags, pillow cases, and table cloths made by the students of the Life Spring School can be purchased at Portabella Fine Foods for a $25 donation.
