Partnering for Real Environmental Impact
1% for the Planet is a global movement that inspires businesses to commit 1% of their annual revenue to approved non-profit environmental causes, ensuring their impact is meaningful, measurable, and ongoing.
As an official 1% for the Planet Environmental Partner, Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari is now one of the organisations that businesses can directly support through this programme.
If you’re keen to partner with us and help ensure the 730 native species within our sanctuary continue to thrive for generations to come, please get in touch to learn more via the link below.
How It Works
1% for the Planet operates on a direct giving model.
This means:
Businesses partner directly with environmental organisations like Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari
Donations go straight to where they make an impact
1% for the Planet acts as a certifier, connector, and amplifier, not a funding intermediary
Flexible Giving Options
Businesses can tailor their commitment in a way that suits their organisation:
1% of total company revenue
1% of a specific brand or product line
1% from selected products or campaigns
This flexibility allows businesses to align giving with their operations while creating authentic, visible impact.
Recognition & Certification
At Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari, we recognise and acknowledge every contribution. Support can include:
Financial donations
In-kind support (products, services, volunteering)
Approved promotional partnerships
All contributions are formally acknowledged with:
Donation receipts
Signed letters of acknowledgment
Proof of contribution
This documentation enables businesses to verify and certify their giving through the 1% for the Planet Certification Team.
Case Study: Auckland based IT firm, Brightly
"We support Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari as part of our 1% for the Planet commitment because meaningful impact works at two levels, systemic change, and action you can see and feel on the ground. Nature-based solutions are well proven; what's harder to put into words is the experience of standing inside a thriving ecosystem, mature native trees, the ngāhere alive with birdsong, streams running with fish and kōura.
Maungatautari makes the case for itself, and we strongly encourage you to visit and feel it with all of your senses. Through supporting Maungataurari our team at Brightly can see tangible results and gain a deeper understanding of what using business as a force for good looks like.”
