The idea behind 1% for the Planet is simple. Companies profit from using the earth’s resources, so they should help protect these resources. Since its founding in 2002, 1% for the Planet has become an international network of individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations working together to realize this common goal. The team behind Hawaiian Paddle Sports is passionate about sharing and protecting our beautiful natural environment. We are proud to join this network of over 1,800 members in 45 countries, and make the commitment to donate 1% of our proceeds to support environmental nonprofits here in Hawai’i and around the globe.
