How to help local sustainability efforts this Giving Tuesday

(Hint: you can use this list throughout the year)

We love to share ways to give back throughout the year, but especially on Giving Tuesday.

Here are a few local efforts to consider giving back to.

Support Organic Farming with The Rodale Insitute

The Rodale Institute protects our food systems by promoting regenerative organic agriculture. If you give $75 or more this Giving Tuesday, they also give you an Organic Heroes Gift Box full of products for you or a friend.

Support Sustainable News with Green Philly

We provide you with sustainability news and tips right here on the website and our social media channels FOR FREE. But did you know we have a donate button and membership program? This past year, funds from donors have helped us hire freelancers that have covered problems with recycling and provide stipends for our interns. Help fuel our future stories by donating to Green Philly today.
