2020 Co-Impact Sourcing^® Trips

In addition to supplying the highest quality essential oils doTERRA is committed to making a positive difference in the lives of farmers, harvesters, and distillers who contribute to doTERRA’s oil production.

With over 100 essential oils in its product line, doTERRA sources its oils from over 40 countries —more than half of which could be considered developing countries. To ensure that small scale farmers and harvesters in disadvantaged areas are treated ethically, doTERRA has introduced an initiative called Co-Impact Sourcing.

Co-Impact Sourcing seeks to develop long-term, mutually beneficial supplier partnerships while creating sustainable jobs and providing reliable income in underdeveloped areas. doTERRA is committed to the ethical treatment of its suppliers by providing on-time payments at fair prices. Growers and harvesters are encouraged to form cooperative groups to share collective benefits and bargaining power while improving skills and capacity. 

Additionally, the  Healing Hands Foundation, doTERRA’s charitable organization, provides funding and resources to create community-based, social-impact projects to improve lives in the larger communities where oils are sourced. 

Each year, doTERRA provides leaders ranked Silver and above the opportunity to visit sourcing sites, learn from our harvesters and perform service projects in these communities. Below is a list of the 2020 Co-Impact Souring trips:

The Maasai Mara ecosystem in Kenya and Tanzania is often referred to as the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” It is home to millions of animals that migrate through the savannah grasslands. The stunning Mara has captured the hearts of tourists from around the globe. However, due to changing climate and lifestyles and a rapidly growing population, the future of this incredible place and the livelihoods of the people who live there is uncertain.

Together with our sourcing partner, Fairoils, doTERRA has a unique opportunity to help “save the Mara” and maintain the integrity of the northernmost point of the Maasai Mara ecosystem through Co-Impact Sourcing.
