Maxim started Enbois as a creative hobby while in College with the help of some college friends. His work soon began to build in popularity but in the back of his mind he knew he wanted to build something that would separate enbois from other jewelry retailers. He came up with the idea to sell his pieces for a greater purpose. He decided to help fund a project that improves resources in education and distance learning programs in rural areas of Haiti through the Haitian Resource Development Foundation. After finishing this project, he was introduced to the world of reforestation and knew immediately that this was the perfect fit for his products.
