OUR FRIENDS
We are a friend of the Fair Trade Association of Australia.
Friends of Fair Trade are a community of people who understand the importance of Fair Trade and how it links our everyday consumer decisions to the lives of artisans, workers and farmers in developing countries. Grow your social justice knowledge of Fair Trade, participate in campaigns or just support local business members by buying their products.
OUR PLEDGE
We are a certified Clean Creatives Agency. That means we pledge not to work for fossil fuels polluters and are committed to a sustainable future for the creative industry.
The biggest part of any agency’s pollution footprint is the work they do for their clients — and the footprint of fossil fuel clients is massive.
Fossil fuel corporations are the world’s leading polluters, and the biggest greenwashers – and they have no substantive plans to change. Even as their campaigns focus on renewable energy, 99% of their investments are spent on producing more oil and gas.
OUR BANK
When building a business for good, every choice you make can be one for good – including who you bank with. We’ve chosen Bank Australia who believe in a fair and just society. Together with our customers, we’re creating a world where people and the planet thrive.
OUR DATA PROVIDER
Internet powers what we do so that we can remain a nimble and remote company. Felix Mobile offers sustainable mobile plans that align with what we do. For those in Australia, use the code TN00004 and you’ll get $5 credit when you sign up.
