New Year, New Quarter, New Enviro Tokens Recipients!
It's a new year, and a new quarter, which means: new Enviro Tokens recipients!
Honest Weight's Enviro Tokens program started in September of 2015 as a way to offer shoppers the option to donate a nickel to a local charity for every reusable shopping bag they bring in, turning a simple green living practice into a chance to give back – everybody wins!
To date, we’ve donated more than $22,000 dollars to over 40 local non-profit organizations and our shoppers have reused more than 400,000 bags.
Each quarter we select five charitable organizations. From January 1-March 31st, we'll be supporting the following area non-profit organizations.
Citizens Campaign for the Environment
The Sanctuary for Independent Media
