  • Advertising, Social Media & Communication

    One of the most critical elements to the success of this giving day is NOT the dollars. It's the messaging. It's the science-based inspired knowledge that we seek to share. Why? Because when we empower everyone with facts and ideas to be "part of the change", we can do more, change more, and bring the whole of the country and beyond to solve this problem.



    So, if you have the "green messaging chops" or the platforms that can put those with that knowledge to work, and elevate our nonprofit participants, then let's talk. In-kind and other media partners are welcome to spread this important day to others. Don't just tweet - connect now: rhonda@earthgives.org



    Our social platforms have been established, but we could use some help as we scale. So reach out and consider offering up some of your talents to our cause. And as a sponsor, you'll be sharing insights for businesses and their employees to take. It is the connected community that together will be inspired to each play a role.

  • Matching Gift

    These gifts can be leveraged by nonprofits is so many ways. So reach out and offer one up - even if $1,000 or more. Check-in with one of our participating nonprofits and explore what might work for them. Don't delay. They'll need to plan around it. And it's a great way for your company to get recognition through their social platforms. Trying to expand your B2C reach in a certain state or area? Then find those organizations and leverage your "charitable donations" to reach more people in a way you can feel good about.

  • Discounts & Donations

    So the Fall begins to near and you're wondering how to message and market to your community. Well, what about offering a donation to Earth Gives and its participating nonprofits for every purchase made between September and October 7th? What about a discount for every donor in your area who made a contribution to Earth Gives? They can show a receipt confirming they gave to EarthGives.org on October 7th.

    • Take a tip from some clothing resellers who provide a "wooden token" for its customers to place into one of three buckets which vote for where their donation should go when you go about making your donation on Earth Gives Day. They feel appreciated. They have some agency to direct you on what group to support. And you can choose your three options for the day - may be one issue-focused, one local, and one led by BIPOC individuals. Build it in any way that models your business ethos.
    • Host an Earth Gives party or event one week out from the day. Invite guests to talk about how each individual can make changes in their lives. And offer up the opportunity to join your business page to make a donation to an organization you're featuring. Donors can also schedule their online gifts in advance.
    • What else? So many ideas, plan now.

  • Articles for Business

    Get creative. There is no single solution. There are many and businesses can lead the way on many levels.
