We are excited to share with our supporters, funders, and partners that we were selected as a “1% For The Planet” environmental partner. Since its inception, 5400+ business members have contributed $530+ million to 6500+ environmental partners through this certified giving platform for companies.
How the 1% for the Planet Movement began
In 2002, Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, envisioned 1% for the Planet to grow impact while creating transparency and accountability for corporate environmental philanthropy. The 1% platform and pre-vetted list of high-quality environmental partners gave companies a more streamlined way to grow their contribution to the causes their customers care about.
Their idea was simple: because companies profit from the resources they take from the earth, they should give back to help protect those resources. With Patagonia leading the charge, this idea resonated with other brands such as Brushfire Records, Klean Kanteen, New Belgium Brewing, and Caudalie. Soon, many like-minded ethical companies followed suit and joined the 1% for the Planet network.
Today, 1% For the Planet’s global network consists of thousands of businesses, individuals, and environmental partners working toward a better future for all, and recently announced record philanthropic giving in 2022.
As we continue to expand our network and partnerships, we look forward to being a part of this platform and organization that is helping not just fund environmental projects but also raise awareness while creating tools that enable companies and consumers to all do more to help the planet.
We’re honored we were vetted to be part of this transformative movement and invite you to join us on this journey toward a more sustainable and regenerative future.
