The Offroader Supply Co.™ Joins 1% For The Planet
Atlanta, Georgia, October 2018 — The Offroader Supply Co.™ joined 1% for the Planet, pledging to donate a minimum of 1% of annual sales to support nonprofit organizations focused on the environment.
“We couldn’t be any more excited to join a community of like-minded individuals who share a burning desire to preserve and protect our planet for generations to come.” Said Kyle Hyman, Founder of The Offroader Supply Co.™
Members of 1% For The Planet commit to supporting approved environmental nonprofit partners by donating the equivalent of 1% of sales through a combination of monetary, in-kind, and approved advertising contributions. Nonprofits are approved based on referrals, track record and environmental focus. There are thousands of approved nonprofits worldwide.
The Offroader Supply Co.™ announces its commitment to the planet, by going above and beyond in partnering with two non-profits to provide start-to-finish funding for two, specific environmentally-focused projects.
● Clean Water Project
● California Reforestation Project
Collectively, 1% for the Planet Members have donated more than $175 million to environmental nonprofits to-date.
“We are thrilled to welcome The Offroader Supply Co.™ to our global network,” said Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet. “Currently, only 3% of total philanthropy goes to the environment and, only 3% of that comes from businesses. We need more business like The Offroader Supply Co.™ to do its valuable part to increase giving and support on the ground outcomes.”
