Contacted them to rescue a dog who was run over by a vehicle. The telephone operator mentioned that they get around 5,000 inquiries a day and have to wait.Until today no response from them. Explained the situation clearly that the dog is a stray and we can’t catch him because the dog is being aggressive and we even mentioned that we are willing to fund for all the procedures.
They can’t even attend the colombo suburban areas which are located nearby. At least they should inform that they can’t attend the rescue work.
Fair enough that they can’t attend all the rescues but at least they should have the courtesy to inform when they can’t undertake a rescue work.

Visiting Sri Lanka a few years ago, I purchased dresses, sandals, t shirts and other clothes from Embark. I am still wearing and enjoying this beautiful, well crafted comfortable clothes! Knowing purchases made at Embark help make a difference in the lives of animals and people makes these clothes even more special! It is time to make another order :) Thank you to Otara and all the wonderful people who make Embark a company that stands in Love and mindful action for our world!

I absolutely LOVE the mission of embark! They had a lot of cute things and I really would have bought more and given a higher rating if it weren't for the staff. I didn't feel like they were following me to offer assistance, because they did not follow the other guests. Just me. That made me feel very uncomfortable and upset. I even tried giving them each item I wished to purchase in hopes they would understand I was not going to steal anything. They continued to follow me. Even when the other guests, who were left to shop in peace, were ready to be rung up...another employee came to follow me. I am tempted to go return everything if it weren't for the mission!

Great quality products but little bit over price. Place is nice but too much inside from main road. Friendly staff.
