I love the work of WWF - World Wide Fund for Nature, and of GROTH AG! "Groth AG is the sole licensee of WWF International, Gland. Only with the agreement of WWF International and Groth AG, can stamps be issued with the WWF Panda Logo." I give you the link to the WWF Stamp Shop - Groth AG, from which you can buy stamps, FDC, maximum cards [don't buy too many maxicards - leave some for me! :) ] Tell Anita and Hans Groth that I referred you - MAYBE you'll get a 10% discount or so :) . I said MAYBE.

"The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is an international non-governmental organizationworking on issues regarding the conservation, research and restoration of the environment, formerly named the World Wildlife Fund, which remains its official name in Canada and theUnited States.

WWF is a foundation,^[5] in 2010 deriving 57% of funding from individuals and bequests, 17% from government sources (such as the World Bank,DFID, USAID) and 11% from corporations.^[6]

25th Anniversary WWF Stamp Collection

GROTH AG UPDATE

Article in Newsletter "The Nature of Business" WWF International January 2007

When Hans Groth, CEO of Groth AG, signed the contract with WWF in 1982, he was confident the WWF Stamp Collection would be a long-term product that would last for at least 10 years! Today, Hans is proud to say that the collection - the largest thematic collection in the world - is still selling well and that his company will soon be celebrating a quarter of a century of collaboration with WWF. It is projected that the Collection will continue to be produced at least until 2011 when WWF will celebrate its 50th Anniversary.

To date over one billion stamps and almost 400 issues have been printed and sold, generating more than 20 million Swiss francs in royalties - an important source of funding for WWF's conservation activities. Groth AG was established by Hans Groth in 1965. lt is a family-owned business of which Hans is the CEO and his son Daniel a member of the Board of Directors. Hans' wife Anita is responsible for production of the WWF Stamp Collection. Their offices are in Unteraegeri (Zug, Switzerland), a charming town in the foothills of the Swiss Alps. At its 1998 Annual Conference in Interlaken (Switzerland), WWF awarded Hans Groth the Gold Panda Award - the organization's highest environmental prize - in recognition of his dedication to the cause of the environment. Hans and Anita have expressed their pleasure at working with WWF, saying: "We wish to thank the team at WWF International for their confidence which has allowed us to produce this beautiful collection over the past 25 years."
