People and Planet First – Supporter

Choosing to support People and Planet First verified enterprises has direct social and environmental benefits, enables innovation, and accelerates the transition to an economy that puts people and the planet first.

 

People and Planet First global stewards, partner networks, and verified enterprises have developed a directory of Supporters that commit to purchasing from and supporting verified enterprises. 

 

Supporters include People and Planet First verified enterprises, local independent businesses, nonprofits, foundations, corporations, government bodies, universities, and other institutions. Opportunities for individual engagement will be added in the future.

When Supporters add an eligible offer or commitment to the Supporter Directory, they receive a Supporter Badge. 

 

Verified enterprises are able to add their offers directly at no cost and are recognized for identifying and referring other Supporters. 

 

Other Supporters are subject to an annual review to prevent socialwashing and greenwashing.

 

The People and Planet First Supporter Directory will be improved over time based on community input.
