Sur Mondaysnous nous engageons pour l'avenir de notre planète. Dès le début, nous étions déterminés à créer une entreprise qui faisait ce qu'il fallait et qui avait une influence positive sur l'environnement.
C'est pourquoi nous avons adhéré à 1% pour la planète. Depuis le premier jour où les produits de la périodeMondays'ont été mis en vente, nous nous sommes engagés à reverser 1 % de chaque achat effectué à l'environnement.
But where exactly does your money go? 1% for the Planet provides businesses like Mondays with expertise in environmental giving, credibility consumers trust and the accountability to follow through. As part of being a for profit member of 1% for the Planet we are audited every year. 1% of our annual sales are directly donated to the network of 1% For the Planet vetted environmental non-profit partners. We have to declare our revenues and have proof of donations that match at least 1% of the annual revenues.
What is 1% for the Planet
1% for the Planet a été créé en 2002 par Yvon Chouinard, le fondateur de Patagonia, et Craig Mathews, le fondateur de Blue Ribbon Flies, dans le but de redonner à l'environnement.
"Nous sommes ceux qui ont causé tous ces problèmes, donc nous sommes ceux qui doivent les résoudre" Yvon Chouinard, cofondateur, 1% pour la planète.
1% for the Planet met en relation des entreprises (dollars) et des organisations à but non lucratif (acteurs) pour "accélérer les dons intelligents en faveur de l'environnement".
Kate Williams, PDG de 1% pour la planète, explique pourquoi ces partenariats sont profondément significatifs :
"Les organisations à but non lucratif sont capables d'aller là où les entreprises ne peuvent pas aller parce que parfois il n'y a pas de marché. Elles sont capables d'être plus audacieuses et plus militantes, parce qu'elles sont motivées par leur mission."
To date 530m US $ have been donated to the non-profits by the community of 5'400 corporate members, that include companies such as Pukka, Woolrich, Patagonia and Mondays ofcourse!
