THE GREENJOBS NETWORK OF WEBSITES - 1% FOR THE PLANET - MEMBER
In keeping with our commitment to the environment, The GreenJobs Network of Websites is a proud member of 1% for the Planet.
This means that we donate at least 1% of our Annual Turnover to environmental organisations in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
ABOUT 1% FOR THE PLANET
1% for the Planet is a global organization that connects dollars and doers to accelerate smart environmental giving. We recognize that the current level of environmental giving—only 3% of total philanthropy—is not enough to solve the most pressing issues facing our planet.
1% for the Planet inspires people to support environmental organizations through annual membership and everyday actions. We advise on giving strategies, we certify donations and we amplify the impact of our network. The idea is simple: because companies profit from the resources they take from the earth, they should protect those resources.
Started in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, our members have given more than $265 million to environmental nonprofits to date. Today, 1% for the Planet is a network of more than 3,400 business members, a new and expanding core of individual members and thousands of nonprofit partners in more than 91 countries. We connect our members with high-impact nonprofit partners in our six core issue areas: climate, food, land, pollution, water and wildlife.
Our headquarters are located in Burlington, VT with staff located around the world.
