You Can Empower Yourself!

You shop. We give back. Tackling our environmental problems takes work and costs money. Nonprofit organizations need adequate funding to support the hard work required of them to restore and preserve our planet for future generations to enjoy. And while Zero Waste Store proudly donates one percent of our annual sales directly to support green organizations and their work, it is everyday consumers like you that are the lifeblood of this system. You make it all possible!

You, the individual, are now empowered with the ability to send the “dollars” you spend to reach the “doers” on the front lines, and each purchase you make represents a solution to the environmental issues that challenge us. Through this is an innovative method of bringing dollars and doers together, you now have a way to directly finance certified and vetted environmental organizations every time you shop at Zero Waste Store!
