Recently, the Max Gladwell blog had a popular post titled “10 Ways to Change the World Through Social Media.” Mobile app developer 3rdWhale was listed as a solution. 1% for the Planet recently partnered with 3rdWhale for the next stage of the mobile app. 3rdWhale is the first mobile app developer to join 1%FTP, and is donating 25 cents of every $1.99 app download – much more than the required 1%! Currently available on the iPhone (more phones coming soon), 3rdWhale locates green products and businesses near you. The current database is full of 25,000 companies (including all 1%FTP members) and is continually growing.

The 1% for the Planet promise is a noteworthy commitment and a great direction for app developers and other enterprises. OakleighVermont.com believes so strongly in this that we give 10% to social causes. No, this is not a contest to see who can give more, but a firm belief that we always get more in return than we give to others and that most of the world is in far poorer shape than we are. We hope that our customers believe that as well.
very cool.
Oakleigh – checking out your site, a few of the products you sell are already 1% members (Klean Kanteen), so your customers are getting a double dose of goodness! Thanks for reading and commenting! And please, hop on 3rdWhale.com and ad yourselves as a listing.
