Why Curiosity Cottage Joined 1% for the Planet
Curiosity Cottage is more than just a preschool, it’s a community hub for nurturing curiosity, creativity, and eco-conscious values from an early age. Our commitment to the planet reflects in everything we do, from creating a natural and sustainable learning environment to offering baby clothing and lifestyle products that prioritize organic materials and ethical sourcing. By joining 1% for the Planet, we aim to support environmental initiatives that align with our mission to inspire families and future generations to value and protect nature.
'Currently, only 3% of total philanthropy goes to the environment and, only 5% of that comes from businesses. The planet needs bigger support than this, and our growing network of business members are doing vital work to increase giving and support on-the-ground action. We're excited to welcome Curiosity Cottage to our global movement,' says Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet.
By contributing 1% of their annual sales, thousands of 1% for the Planet members have raised millions in funding to support environmental partners around the globe.
Partners are vetted and approved based on referrals, track record, and environmental focus. With over 5,000 environmental partners in the 1% for the Planet network, every member can find and support the causes that matter most to them.
At Curiosity Cottage, we believe in creating a world where curiosity and care for the environment grow hand-in-hand. As both a preschool and a community, our mission is to nurture young minds while making choices that respect the planet. From using eco-friendly fabrics in our baby clothing line to adopting eco-conscious packaging, we strive to create products that families can feel good about. As members of 1% for the Planet, we’re excited to support impactful initiatives like tree planting, contributing to a greener future.
