Nominate A Nonprofit for the Arbor Teas Annual Earth Day Donation
Arbor Teas Annual Earth Day Donation
Nominate your favorite Earth Day-related nonprofit!
Do you know a nonprofit that supports or works toward one of the themes of Earth Day - honoring the earth and promoting peace and environmentalism? If so, we invite you to submit an Earth Day-related nonprofit for consideration for our annual Earth Day donation!
In 2021, we announced that the events of the COVID-19 pandemic caused us to reconsider our annual Earth Day Sale. Instead of celebrating Earth Day with a sale we decided to shift our focus to supporting Earth Day with a donation. We strongly feel this support is more in line with the original intention of Earth Day and our own focus on sustainability and dependable pricing.
As a result, Arbor Teas will make a one-time donation equivalent to 15% of sales received on Earth Day (April 22 of the same year) to a nonprofit that supports the ideas proposed by peace activist John McConnell for the first Earth Day in 1970 - to honor the Earth and promote peace and environmentalism.
Your orders on April 22nd, 2025, made it possible to donate $2,500 to the Detroit Black Community Food Sovereignty Network (DBCFSN)! Arbor Teas is proud to support DBCFSN in realizing their mission "to build self-reliance, food security, and justice in Detroit’s Black community by influencing public policy, engaging in urban agriculture, promoting healthy eating, encouraging cooperative buying, and directing youth towards careers in food-related fields."
In 2024 we donated $2,500 to support The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation! This international nonprofit organization protects the natural world through the conservation of invertebrates and their habitats. Arbor Teas is proud to support The Xerces Society because they work to protect the "little things that run the world."
Your orders on April 22nd, 2023 made it possible to donate $2,500 to support Earthjustice! Founded in 1971, Earthjustice is the premier nonprofit public interest environmental law organization. Its mission is to wield the power of law and the strength of partnership to protect people’s health; to preserve magnificent places and wildlife; to advance clean energy; and to combat climate change.
