In a newly established fundraising partnership, the new beachwear and leisure wear clothing company – Planet Protect Sportswear™ – based in Lake Oswego, Oregon – has finalized an affiliation with Earth Share of Oregon to create an ongoing fundraising partnership.  The customer has a choice during the check-out process that allows 10% of their total purchase to be donated by Planet Protect to Earth Share which represents 67 environmental charities.  Planet Protect Sportswear can be found on the web at www.PlanetProtect.com and visit Earth Share of Oregon at www.earthshare-oregon.org.

Established in 2006, Planet Protect Sportswear was created to offer great beach and leisure wear to consumers looking for clothing made from sustainable products and responsible companies, and offers year-around beach wear sales opportunities (for those who travel to warmer climates during the winter).  A majority of the clothing options come from organic sources (some certified and some non-certified) and other options from companies working hard to minimize their eco-footprint.

“We are incredibly excited to have Earth Share of Oregon as our fundraising partner,” said Jim Beriault – founder of Planet Protect Sportswear. “When you choose Earth Share of Oregon during check out on our web site – you are helping nearly 70 non-profit organizations around the country and in my home of the Northwest.” 

“We are proud to be a recipient of Planet Protect’s generosity.  The fact that they are a local company selling environmentally conscious products is a perfect match for our conservation groups and our community of donors. We also appreciate how the company values philanthropy and shares our goals to reduce global warming and preserve nature,” says Trudy Toliver, Earth Share of Oregon’s Executive Director

If you are looking for great shorts, skirts, tops or sandals, Planet Protect Sportswear is a great option.  Planet Protect is most proud of their T-shirt series – such as the Ancient Earth Series: featuring art from West African Adrinka symbols, or the Elements of Life Series: highlighting Earth, Air and Water symbols or the Sea Life Series – where endangered or beloved animals are featured on the T-shirts.  “We constantly seek great art to feature on our shirts, its cutting edge design that makes a statement,” noted Beriault.

It’s important to note that Planet Protect Sportswear makes their donations based on the total purchase price (excluding shipping and handling charges) of the customer and this donation comes from Planet Protect’s gross profit as a company and is not tax deductible on the customer’s part.
