We are pleased to announce Green Venture has joined 1% for the Planet as an environmental partner! This partnership will advance our impact in Hamilton to address climate change and support environmental conservation as well as involve more businesses in the environmental movement.
1% for the Planet is an accountability partner for businesses that are ready to reject business as usual and give back to environmental partners making a difference around the globe. Started in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, their members have given hundreds of millions of dollars to environmental partners to date.
This collective has more than 6700 environmental partners and has coordinated over $635 million in giving towards organizations that are working towards a more sustainable future for our planet.
“The intent of 1% for the Planet is to help fund these diverse environmental organizations so that collectively they can be a more powerful source in solving the world’s problems,” writes Yvon Chouinard, co-founder of 1% for the Planet. Learn more by viewing Green Venture’s profile.
Joel, from SMPL design, saw our impact in our community and wanted to support our efforts to help Hamilton residents live more sustainably. Through 1% for the Planet, SMPL generously donated towards Green Venture’s projects and programming.
