About Kee-Ka
Kee-Ka (a name inspired by the sweet babbling of infants) strives to deliver expressive, eco-chic apparel and gifts for the littlest and most significant people in your life.
Kee-ka believes in protecting the future of the world that our children will inherit. This means crafting fashionable products in socially and ecologically responsible ways: using 100% certified organic cotton and low-impact dyes, as well as working with Fair Trade and Fair Wage suppliers around the world. A Kee-Ka gift is especially meaningful because it is bundled with the best intentions.

What am I supporting when buying Kee-Ka?
In addition to supporting sustainable and environmentally friendly production associated with buying organic cotton, you're also supporting a cooperative of farmers in India, a Druze village in Northern Israel, and an amazing team in Brooklyn that work very hard to design, develop, and deliver your Kee-Ka experience.
Under what working conditions are Kee-Ka products made?
In both Israel and India Kee-Ka products are made under fair-trade and fair-wage conditions. This means that the employees who make the products are treated and paid fairly. This also includes healthy working conditions and respect.
What is Fair-Trade?
Fair trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, which seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers. Fair trade organizations are engaged actively in supporting producers, awareness raising and in campaigning for changes in the rules and practice of conventional international trade.
