With climate week in full swing we thought what better time to introduce our new impact partner SeaTrees, and also announce our 2024 Climate Neutral recertification for the 2nd year in a row!??? Part of our goal for 2024 recertification was to partner with high quality carbon projects that meet The Change Climate Project’s rigorous standards, so we chose to purchase our carbon credits from SeaTrees. Each carbon credit purchased from SeaTrees sequesters one ton of CO2 with Verra certified carbon offsets from the Southern Cardamom REDD+ Project in Cambodia. Furthermore, each credit also plants three mangrove trees in Marenreni, Kenya which have the potential to sequester an additional ton of CO2 in a qualitative sense. Incredibly, mangrove forests “suck” aka sequester, 5-10 times more CO2 out of the atmosphere per hectare than tropical rainforests, and much of that carbon is stored in the soil and sediment that make up a mangrove ecosystem. If you are searching for a reputable organization to obtain carbon credits from we'd encourage you to give SeaTrees a look. And during the process of purchasing our credits, we also onboarded them as an official Impact Partner, giving our clients the opportunity to offer them as a charity impact alternative to a physical gift through our GIFTforward gifting platform. If you want to learn more about their Mangrove project in Kenya, we've dropped a film from them into this post ???? As you will see, their work also provides significant social benefits to the local populations, which is an additional impact that drove us to partner with SeaTrees. #climateweek #carboncredits #carbonneutral #changeclimate #socialimpact #bcorp #corporategifts #ESG

At Gifts for Good we spend a large part of our work weeks helping clients celebrate their important employee milestones, so it's EXTRA special when we get to celebrate our own. This photo was snapped on our team outing last week to celebrate a full 'lucky' 7 years of Jenise S., (3rd from left), our amazing Chief Impact Officer. ?? Jenise works tirelessly every day to make sure the impact metrics are counted, the orders ship on time, and most importantly, that we are being thoughtful and supportive to our many impact and cause partners who are empowering us all to #DoGood. Jenise has been here building since day one, and we feel so lucky to have her in our lives. ?? ?? ?? #employeemilestones #workanniversary #celebrateyourteam #socialimpact #partnerships #corporategifts
