We patronize suppliers that use sustainable harvesting practices, grow pesticide-free plants, and produce Certified Organic ingredients.

Zosimos Botanicals LLC gives back to the community through dissemination of information about natural alternatives to chemical-laden cosmetics and by donating products to others that share its principles. In 2009, ZB is supporting the following wonderful causes and charities, which we invite you to visit:

• Please join us in support of the Walter Reed Auxiliary, which is a spouse group of physicians at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. This organization serves the Walter Reed Army Medical Center Community by promoting fellowship and the pursuit of common interests among those stationed or employed at Walter Reed. It also supports worthwhile service and community projects for the patients receiving medical care there.
  On January 23rd, the Auxiliary is hosting a wine tasting event specifically for the Physician, Nurses and medical corps personal and their spouses at the Fraser Gallery in downtown Bethesda, MD. All proceeds will go to benefit their programs that support wounded soldiers, as well as families stationed at Walter Reed/Bethesda Naval Hospital.
• Canine Partners For Life is making the miracle of independence possible by training and placing service dogs with people in need. Recipients typically have physical disabilities affecting mobility and use of their hands, or are people with multiple medical conditions including seizure disorders. The dogs bring greater independence by opening doors, stabilizing people that walk unsteadily, paying cashiers, operating light switches/buttons, rolling people over in bed preventing sores, assisting with transfers out of the wheelchair, alerting their handlers to seizures and more.
• Zosimos Botanicals provided soy candles to be auctioned off at the Breast Cancer Fund's Heroes Tribute at the Jewish Community Center in San Francisco on April 30, 2009.
• Locally, we donated cosmetics for Burning tree Elementary School's Second Grade musical performance of An Aesop Adventure on March 4, 2009. The school is located in Bethesda, MD. Our gift was acknowledged in the concert program. A Mom from the school requested our involvement to replace cosmetics purchased by another parent from the Dollar Store which she objected to due to their synthetic ingredients.
• Zosimos is thrilled to have found Terry Grahl, through StartUp Nation's 2009 Mom's in Business Competition. Terry leads Enchanted Makeovers, an organization that transforms shelters for women and children into places of peace and possibilities. (Not just where basic needs are met, but spiritual needs for hope and beauty also). We will be sending personal care products for the shelter residents.
• We are honoring the American Association of State Troopers for their work with the Amber Alerts program.
• Days End Farm Horse Rescue - Zosimos Botanicals had donated to the Grapes of Hooves Silent Auction to benefit Days End Farm Horse Rescue. Days End cares for abused and neglected horses. The event is April 4th in Lisbon, MD. Click here for more details.
• Liberty's Promise Zosimos Botanicals sponsored an Intern from Tanzania through Liberty's Promise Opportunities Plus program, which gives young immigrants a chance to explore their talents by exposing them to career possibilities.
• Pure Prevention A campaign to raise awareness about the environmental causes of breast cancer.
• Poplar Spring Animal Sanctuary

Our Orders are packed in reused packing materials. Because it utilizes substantially less energy to reuse than recycle, Zosimos Botanicals LLC reuses packing materials whenever possible instead of buying new materials. If possible, please reuse or recycle these packing materials.
