The purpose of the Green Acts Reward Programme is to provide a positive feedback to people that do small green acts – reuse or refuse a shopping bag, refill a container or green commute to the store.

Last year (2011) we donated $2981.89 to 36 different organisations (we use to have 3 groups per month but this year we are doing three different groups for two months. So far this year we have donated $534.81 to some worthy organisations.

The next two months I am focusing on permaculture projects in Africa. The three recipients will be:

• Badilisha Eco Village Foundation
• Ghana Permaculture Network
• Kusamala Institute of Agriculture & Ecology

I reckon that helping people repair their land so that they can grow their own healthy food helps with a mind shift that is needed right across the globe. Peramaculture is one of the many tools that can help achieve this and I like to support small endeavors.

Please keep up the good work customers of Earth’s General Store and donate your chips so that I can send money on your behalf to worthy recipients. Thanks for the support.
