Grades of Green was recently accepted to become one of the
receiving non-profit organizations within 1% for the Planet. 1% for the
Planet is a non-profit who serves to to build and support an alliance of
businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet. Corporate
philanthropy in America resulted in a record of $306 billion to charity in
2007. However, the environment sector received the lowest funding with
less than 2%. So 1% for the Planet is helping tilt that scale to give
more to the under-funded non-profits dedicated to the pursuit of
sustainability, to preserving and restoring our natural environment. To

of Green as its 1% recipient, click here.
