1% for the Planet was launched in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, former owner of Blue Ribbon Flies. Through 1% for the Planet, businesses pledge to donate 1% of their gross annual sales to environmental nonprofits.
Together they use the power of collective action to protect the environment and better our planet, giving over $250 million since 2002. It has become a global network of over 3000 business and individual members connected to over 4000 environmental nonprofits.
Ethical Tees has been a proud member of 1% for the Planet since 2021. While we support charities and not for profit organisations with 5% off their orders, 1% for the Planet has helped expand our giving program and our work to include almost 20 more organizations in their network.
A big thank you to our community for helping us to give back and do more for our people and planet.
