Brown Pelican tile from Pratt & Larson to benefit Gulf

Seventy-percent of the proceeds from the sale of each tile will be donated to the Louisiana Gulf Response Organization, the company says.

In response to the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, Portland, OR-based Pratt & Larson Ceramics has launched a fund raiser to aid volunteers working on clean up and recovery efforts with its Brown Pelican Tile.

The handmade, hand painted 6x9 tile is available for a limited time for $50. Seventy-percent of the proceeds from the sale of each tile will be donated to the Louisiana Gulf Response Organization, the company says.

The Louisiana Gulf Response Organization is a partnership between four non-profit environmental and wildlife organizations working together to protect and restore coastal Louisiana, including: Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Program, Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana, National Audubon Society, and The Nature Conservancy.
