🌍 We’ve reached a major milestone: Bon Ton Toys is now a proud member of 1% for the Planet! We’re thrilled to join this amazing global network dedicated to supporting environmental causes. 1% for the Planet connects businesses committed to a healthier planet. Founded by the visionary leaders behind Patagonia, they ensure our future generations thrive. For over 30 years, we’ve partnered with WWF to support conservation. We’ve also teamed up with Surfrider Foundation Netherlands to protect our oceans and War Child Nederland to stand up for kids in conflict zones. Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet, says: “Currently, only 3% of total philanthropy goes to the environment, and only 5% of that comes from businesses. The planet needs bigger support than this, and our growing network of business members are doing vital work to increase giving and support on-the-ground action. We’re excited to welcome Bon Ton Toys to our global movement.” Our commitment: 1% of our annual sales will go to environmental organizations. We’ve even tripled this percentage in the past, showing our dedication to making a difference. At Bon Ton Toys, we believe you don’t need superpowers to make a difference – it starts with a commitment to our planet. 🌟 Interested in reading more about our partnership?
