The Oregon Chapters of the Surfrider Foundation are extremely grateful to Tactics boardshop for their continued generous support for the protection and enjoyment of Oregon's ocean, waves and beaches through the 1% For The Planet Program. These funds are extremely helpful in supporting education and outreach, Blue Water Task Force water quality monitoring programs, and various campaigns led by the Oregon Chapters.
“We are stoked that since joining 1% For The Planet in 2007, our combined giving over the last four years has topped $250,000. Thanks to our customers and our staff for backing this commitment,” said co-owner Matt Patton.
Tactics’ partnership with 1% For The Planet is the foundation of its annual grants program. 1% For The Planet is an alliance of businesses – large and small – that understand the necessity of protecting the natural environment and are committed to leveraging their resources to create a healthier planet. They understand that profit and loss are directly linked to the health of our ecosystems. In addition, these businesses are concerned with the social and environmental impacts of industry. As a member, Tactics is committed to donating 1% of its annual net revenues to environmental organizations. It is a huge obligation, but one that it believes is the right choice.
