Kammok sells innovative, high-quality hammock camping equipment that is lightweight, durable and benefits a great cause. A Texas-based social enterprise, the brand started in 2011 with a Kickstarter campaign that raised over $200,000, becoming one of the most successful projects on the site.
Kammok is partnered with Malaria No More, an organization with a view to completely eradicating malaria deaths globally by the year 2015. For each Kammok purchased, the socially responsible brand provides a treated mosquito net or health education to a family in Africa.
Kammok also has a partnership with 1% For The Planet, which sees 1% of the company's revenue donated to Comfort the Children International, supporting its environmental and sustainability initiatives in Maai Mahiu, Kenya.
