HIGH BANK PLEDGES 1% OF ALL SALES TO ENVIRONMENTAL CAUSES
COLUMBUS, OH — High Bank Distillery joins 1% For The Planet as an official partner. We will donate 1% of our yearly revenue to support environmental nonprofits around the world.
Since it’s foundation in 2002, 1% For The Planet has raised hundreds of millions of dollars to help the environment.
Co-founder Jordan Helman explains, “we wanted to be a part of the solution instead of sitting by. In addition to the yearly donation. we are working with local and regional nonprofits, such as Friends Of The Lower Olentangy Watershed and One Tree Planted.
We want to help do our part as a local business to conserve our natural resources and make an impact on our planet. We care about where our guests’ money goes to support. By dining in, ordering take-out, buying a bottle, or enjoying a cocktail with a High Bank spirit, our guests are in turn helping sustain and improve the environment. Their support does not just end at the point of purchase, it extends to bettering their future.”
When you support High Bank, you are supporting making a positive impact on the environment.
"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 is doing its valuable part to increase giving and support on-the-ground outcomes. We're excited to welcome High Bank Distillery Co. to our global movement," says Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet.
