We are committed to protecting our only home - planet earth.
Parkour and l’art du déplacement are diciplines deeply rooted in values like respect, integrity and responsibility. These values are increasingly essential to the Street Movement community and our activities, especially as we grow, change and evolve.
We realise that things like the production and distribution of our clothing and merchandise has an impact on the planet. We are far from perfect, but we try our hardest to keep improving day by day - it starts with taking responsibility and giving back. That’s why we have joined 1% for the Planet, pledging to donate 1% of annual sales from our clothing and merchandise, to support nonprofit organizations focused on the environment. We are hoping to be able to expand this commitment to other areas of our business in the future.
“Currently, only 3% of total philanthropy goes to the environment and, only 3% of that comes from businesses. The planet needs bigger support than this, and our growing network of member businesses is doing its valuable part to increase giving and support on the ground outcomes.
We’re excited to welcome Street Movement to our global movement of over 1,800 businesses,”
By contributing 1% of their annual sales, over 1800 1% for the Planet members from 45 different companies have raised over $200 million to support approved environmental non-profits around the globe. Nonprofits are approved based on referrals, track record and environmental focus. Thousands of nonprofits worldwide are currently approved.
