Care about the future of our oceans & environment, but don't know where to give? My Impact Portfolio includes four high-impact charities supporting marine conservation, environmental sustainability, and food waste reduction.

The Group's Purpose

Did you know that every year, Canadians send 5.6 million tons of food and food packaging waste to landfill? That’s the equivalent weight of 36,000 adult blue whales - more than double the actual worldwide population! With increasing pressures on our marine ecosystems, the time to tackle the global waste issue is now.

I know that choosing a charity that supports marine conservation & food security can be tough. That’s why I joined as an Impact Ambassador for this cause: to help you give with confidence.

As a marine biologist turned social entrepreneur, I know exactly which charities are making a huge impact in this space. Curious about how I developed this expertise? Read more about me under About the Organizers.

How to Help

All the money raised will be sent to the following charities based on need:
1. Environmental Youth Alliance
2. Food Stash Foundation
3. Fresh Roots
4. Sea Smart School

Each of these charities has been vetted as high-impact by 1% For the Planet and are partners of Nada. We’ve been working with each of these charities, except for our newest partner EYA, for at least 3 years each.

Several also have a key focus on engaging youth early on. We need to excite & empower the upcoming generations to prioritize & advocate for the environment, marine conservation, and food security.
