Good Works Donations and Hand Crafted Polo Mallets

(Illustrative)
We try and give 
back. 
Escanaba Polo Mallet Company began with less than $500 as an experiment in small-business entrepreneurship. The idea was simple: start with a product, some practical skills, limited capital, and see whether a market could be developed.

The company’s signature products are locally designed and handcrafted polo mallets. Each is made individually, while new products are periodically introduced to test customer interest. Over time, the goal is to expand into additional locally made equestrian related products.

The company also has a strong philanthropic focus. A portion of sales—often 10% at the point of purchase—goes directly to charitable causes. After expenses, a significant share of remaining profits may also be donated, while some funds are retained for supplies and business growth.

The organizations listed below have benefited from the company through financial contributions, donated products, time, or other resources. Because we are small the donations are not necessarily large but it is still important to do it because together we can make our world just a litte better place. 

For Escanaba Polo Mallet Company, entrepreneurship is about more than making and selling products. It is about developing skills, testing ideas, supporting local craftsmanship, and using a small business to do some good in both the equestrian community but also our local communities.
