Waterkeepers Chesapeake has joined 1% for the Planet as an environmental partner! This partnership is intended to advance our impact 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.
The Benevity Goodness Platform helps Waterkeepers Chesapeake bring our mission to life at organizations such as ADP, Apple, Google, Microsoft, T. Rowe Price, and more. Employees at participating companies can elect to have a portion of their paycheck donated to Waterkeepers Chesapeake via Benevity's donation platform. In addition, many companies will match up to 100% of their employee's donation-- effectively maximizing the impact of their support. Contact your employer today to see if they participate in workplace giving through the Benevity Goodness Platform.
If you would like to make a lasting and significant gift to Waterkeepers Chesapeake, please consider a legacy gift, such as a bequest in a will, a capital gift, or a gift of securities. Tribute giving is another generous way to make a difference. Invite your friends and family to make contributions in honor of your birthday, graduation, or special occasion. In addition, event sponsorship is a visible way to support our work. If you would like to take part in any of these gift-giving programs, please contact Deputy Director Robin Broder at robin(at)waterkeeperschesapeake.org or call (800) 995-6755.
