One of the most important parts of starting Compost Guy was to make sure it benefits those in need and make the world a better place.
A good portion of the profits goes to sponsoring x3 children in poverty through the work of Compassion. This is by way of a monthly sponsorship and extra gifts to the children and their families. So far, we have helped with food, school resources, housing, general supplies, and a few goats and chickens!
Compassion is a well-respected organisation that has a great network to help children in poverty on an ongoing basis.
We donate to Transform Trade who are "A global community of farmers, workers, collectives, campaigners, donors and supporters, we work together for trade that values people over profit. Right now, corporate greed and destruction still dominate the world of trade. But there is another way to do business. It’s called people centred trade."
In addition to this, we also get trees planted with Just One Tree. They have sites worldwide where they plant trees and help combat climate change.
[Updated 14th May 2024 - we plant more trees every month!]
We have planted 3,249 trees, removing approximately 1,000 tonnes over the next 25 years, and every month, we get more trees planted.
