We can do something to help the environment.
"Don't get depressed, get angry. We're the ones that caused everyone of these problems, therefore, we're the ones that need to solve them... If we just take, take, take and give nothing back, we're going to have nothing left. That's why we have to speak louder and more frequently for the things we know and love." - Yvon Chouinard, Craig Mathews - founders, 1% for the Planet.
Since its inception, the 1% for the Planet's global network of businesses, nonprofits and individuals have contributed more than $150 Million dollars to grassroots environmental initiatives.
Ridge is proud to be making a difference as a 1% for the Planet member company. A portion of every Ridge purchase goes to this amazing organization. Last year, our 1% contribution benefited some great groups including Protect Our Winters, Waterkeeper Alliance and the Breast Cancer Prevention Partners.

We have done amazing work over the past decade and we have an opportunity to lead, to be fearless, and to fully embody our belief that when dollars and doers come together, we are unstoppable." - 1% for the PlanetMain image photo credit: Brandon Russell, Minaret Photography
