The 1% for the Planet Program
As of January 2022, we are committed members of the 1% for the Planet initiative. This means we’ll be donating 1% of every dollar we make (total revenue, not just our profits) to help protect our environment and keep us accountable to the planet we love!
The 1% for the Planet program is a fantastic initiative that drives environmental philanthropy and gives businesses around the globe the tools to make a financial commitment to our planet. As such, we are really excited and proud to have joined a global network of businesses that are committed to doing right by our planet.
We see it as our responsibility to reach beyond the positive contribution of our sustainable projects to have a widespread global impact. We believe that being a 1% for the Planet member not only affords us this opportunity, but also gives our clients the confidence that every stage of their project is contributing to broader climate positive action.
We hope this decision will start meaningful conversations that in turn promote positive action. This commitment requires transparency, so we look forward to keeping the Green Sheep Collective community up to date with which organisations and not-for-profits we decide to donate to and welcome your questions about the program.
The beautiful thing about this initiative is that as we grow, our commitment grows with us. We encourage everyone to look at the 1% for the Planet program as it may present you or someone you know with an opportunity to help make an impact and better our planet.
Now, to begin donating!
