Earth Gives

Seed Sponsors & Partners

Inviting Earth Gives Day pollinators!

There is no one way to tackle the climate crisis.

The 501c3 organizations driving the change need your help. With only 2% of philanthropy going to this critical work, there is a large need for an "all in" embrace of climate action by every individual possible. Earth Gives provides a starting point, or a point along the journey for people, their families, their businesses and beyond to come together as a community. Your investment in Earth Gives, its giving day, its programs and outreach will be catalytic to help us invite people all across the U.S. to give, volunteer, and deepen their actionable insights.


Like a bee, different "pollination" opportunities are available to best fit your interests and creatively align with your company or organization's unique positioning. Become a Sponsor, a Prize Funder that helps gamify giving, a program sponsor of our Power Hours and Community Commons session that help support the ripple impact we can make through organizations, schools, families and elsewhere.

Thank you for your support in 2024


Seed Sponsors & Partners, WELCOME

Become a Seed Sponsor and contribute to the prize fund!

Support the ecosystem of environmental nonprofits.

When you invest as a sponsor or partner, you're supporting a community of nonprofits on the front lines of climate solutions. AND you're helping attract new individuals to invest and support their work. An additional way to invest is as a Prize Fund donor. These are bonus dollars that are awarded at the end of the giving day inititiatve to nonprofits of all sizes based on their success of attracting dollars and/or donors. Matching dollars are welcome and are used thorughout the giving period to incentivize donors. 


Investments at all levels are meaningful:

  • Sponsorships range from naming rights at $100,000 to modest partnerships at $5,000. 
  • Prize Funds can be $500 or $10,000 plus. With a $10,000 commitment, your funds can be targeted to a specific cause such as STEM education, tree plantings, ocean clean-ups, regenerative agriculture, and more. THey can also be targeted to the kind of leadership or focus, such as Native-led or a geographic area - a state, a region, or globally.
  • Pitch into the overall fund and award those organizations that rally the most money or donors based on their budget size.
  • Eco Boost Hours catalyze giving over a specific hour all throughout the 30+ days of the initiative. You can contribute $250 on up for a specific contest and be featured with a mini-profile and link to your webiste. 

100% of donations to the prize fund are awarded to nonprofit groups. A  Prize Fund and Thank You Reception to celebrate and award the prizes is held in October or early November! Prize Fund dollars are held and awarded after the conclusion of the Earth Gives Day campaign.

"Despite the array of groups and organizations working on global warming, we are still missing a key element: the movement. Along with the hard work of not-for-profit lobbyists, environmental lawyers, green economists, sustainability-minded engineers, and forward-thinking entrepreneurs, it's going to take the inspired political involvement of millions of Americans to get our country on track to solving this problem." - Bill McKibben, Third Act
