Corporate Giving

North Cascades Institute is a 1% for the Planet Environmental Partner! 

1% for the Planet is a global network of thousands of businesses and environmental nonprofits who share a common goal of supporting people and the planet. Member businesses (of which there are over 5,400) commit to donating at least 1% of annual sales directly to vetted environmental organizations – that’s us! 

If you own or work for a 1% for the Planet member business, please consider North Cascades Institute as part of your annual contribution to support developing the climate leaders of the future through our environmental education programs for diverse regional youth. 

Gear Aid has helped keep our youth programs and our gear going strong on backcountry adventures for over a decade. From providing in-kind gifts, repairs, and funding, Gear Aid has helped the Institute offer hundreds of students life-changing experiences in nature. We're honored to be one of their ongoing partner organizations, working together to champion renewal, reuse and preservation in the outdoors. To learn more and shop Gear Aid's product line, visit gearaid.com/shop.
