This Giving Tuesday, Applegate is Doing Our Part for the Planet

If you know me, you know I’m the kind of guy who just loves Giving Tuesday. What a perfect antidote to the holiday rush. It’s a way to support the causes that matter most to you, and to inspire others’ generosity, too.

That’s why this year, Applegate is donating $10,000 to the Climate Collaborative, a nonprofit dedicated to fostering climate action within the grocery industry. The funds raised will support a wide range of programs including promoting regenerative agriculture and the development of solutions that help reduce emissions. 

Why the Climate Collaborative? The nonprofit works with thousands of brands, distributors, retailers and associations to help accelerate meaningful and just climate action and advocacy throughout the food system. Since its founding, it has catalyzed and tracked the public climate commitments from more than 760 companies. 

Food brands like Applegate can help play an important role in pushing potential climate solutions forward. It is one more way we continue to advance our mission, Changing The Meat We Eat®, as we prioritize people, animals and our planet.

With our donation, I hope we will inspire consumers to make their own commitments to climate organizations – and to shop their values all year long, supporting Climate Collaborative’s partner brands, which include Califia Farms, Simpli, Clif Bar & Company and Patagonia Provisions.   And, of course, Applegate! 

Happy Holidays!
