Business Partnership

What better way to strengthen your brand's green credentials than by investing in RE Sources’ work to protect the lands, waters, wildlife, and climate that make Northwest Washington so special.

Tree to Sea Business Partnership Program

The secret is out about Northwest Washington. The region has rapidly gained a reputation as a premiere destination for folks pursuing healthy lifestyles, abundant outdoor recreation opportunities, great food and beer, and a vibrant local arts and culture scene.

Now is the time for local businesses to invest in their brand’s reputation as green lifestyle leaders. And what better way to build those credentials than by investing in RE Sources’ work to protect and restore the lands, waters, marine life, and climate that make this place so special.

Based in Bellingham, RE Sources is a regional nonprofit focused on amplifying all voices and giving people impactful ways to safeguard the place we love, from Doug fir forests to kelp forests. Given the critical role that businesses play in the life of a community, we want to expand our network of business partners who are committed to the protection of Northwest Washington, from tree to sea. We hope you’ll join us.

 Values

Our mission is to mobilize people in Northwest Washington to build just and thriving communities and to protect the land, water and climate on which we all depend. Justice and equity are core organizational values, which guide our decision making around business partnerships.

We stand against racism, white supremacy and the ingrained structures and institutions that enable and perpetuate them. Today and historically, Indigenous, Black and other communities of color are frequently the most harmed by environmental degradation. We envision a future where every person benefits from clean energy, less pollution and thriving outdoor places. We also celebrate NW Washington’s LGBTQ+ community and stand firmly against anti-gay and anti-trans rhetoric. In short, aligning your company with RE Sources means aligning it with values of inclusion, equity and justice.

While we understand that every organization (including us) has room to grow in terms of greening its operations and reducing its environmental impacts, RE Sources seeks business partnerships that are genuinely committed to doing right by our region’s workers, communities and environment. Greenwashers need not apply.
