12 Aug Envirotokens – What are They and How do they Help the Library
For the Santa Barbara Public Library Foundation, every cent counts towards the long-term sustainability of the Library. That’s why programs like Lazy Acre’s Envirotokens are important to a steady stream of donations from Santa Barbara community members who don’t even have to open their checkbooks!
Lazy Acres incentivizes sustainability through this program. To participate, when you shop at Lazy Acres and bring your own reusable bags, they give you a 10¢ Envirotoken per bag. You can then pay it forward to one of six local nonprofits with a focus in K-12 education efforts, hunger relief, and environmental stewardship.
Every month, Lazy Acres tallies up the Envirotokens donated, converts them into dollar amounts, and sends a check to each organization.
The Foundation’s participation in the Envirotokens program is voted on annually by locals like you! Every June, the community gets to decide which six non-profits will be its recipient for another year. We will keep you updated through our Instagram and our Newsletter for the next voting cycle.
“Since every little choice matters, we do our best to reward the good ones.” – Lazy Acres on their Envirotokesn program.
