The 'KOGUMA' Piggy Bank is enabled to deliver users with an augmented reality experience as well as to donate funds towards wildlife conservation projects. Designed and crafted in France from 100% biodegradable materials, the 'KOGUMA' Piggy Bank works with the accompanying ICECAP app for iOS or Android devices to enable children to learn about arctic ecosystems.
The 'KOGUMA' Piggy Bank is designed by Yasuyuki Wada and is made by Coq En Pate Editions, which is an ethical France-based fashion brand for kids.
For each 'KOGUMA' Piggy Bank sold, 3% will go towards funding wildlife conservation projects. The hope is that the 'KOGUMA' Piggy Bank will not only be able to directly fund such endeavors, but enable children to be educated and inspired to get more involved.
