Ever notice that 1% for the Planet logo at the bottom of every Trailspace page?

It means that Trailspace donates at least 1 percent of annual sales to environmental organizations each year, every year, no matter what.

We made this commitment to give back to the outdoors in 2006 when we joined 1% for the Planet, shortly after yours truly read—and was galvanized into action by—Let My People Go Surfing: The Education of a Reluctant Businessman by Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia and co-founder of 1% FTP.

Recently, our friends at 1% FTP offered us the opportunity to share why Trailspace, an outdoor gear review and backcountry community, is a member of the 1% network, and who we support annually.

Read our blog post on One Percent to learn more about Trailspace's commitment to 1% and our nonprofit partners. Then tell us below what outdoor nonprofits you support and why.
