Business Certification

Our business certification is simple and impactful.

  1. You choose what conservation causes to support with your volunteered employee time.

  2. You commit to volunteer at least 20 hours per every 5 employees per year.

  3. We certify that you have fulfilled your commitment to conservation.

  4. We support you, your team, and your efforts through:

    • Best-practice training for your volunteer programs.

    • Employee and customer empowerment.

    • Helping you communicate authentically about how you give back.

*Examples: 0-5 employees is 20 hours per year, 6-10 employees is 40 hours per year, 11-15 employees is 60 hours per year, etc.

Any business can write a check, but true commitment to conservation is shown through the donation of your most valuable resource: Your employee time.
