Empowering Individuals in the Global Community Through Entrepreneurship
“I think Whole Planet Foundation represents in a very concrete way the heroic impulse that our comp
any has to change and improve the world.” - JOHN MACKEY, CO-CEO AND CO-FOUNDER, WHOLE FOODS MARKET®
Annual Calendar Program Overview: 2014 WPF US Calendar Program
Thanks to supplier sponsors, 100% of calendar proceeds are donated to Whole Planet Foundation for poverty alleviation in communities worldwide where Whole Foods sources products. The 2013 US calendar retails for $3, includes more than $40 in coupon savings from suppliers,
features inspiring entrepreneurs from around the globe and will be sold in Whole Foods Market US stores starting October 2012. Calendar funds empower entrepreneurs with a microcredit loan and the opportunity to create or expand a home-based business and lift themselves and their families out of poverty.
The success of the 2007 through 2012 Calendars has raised $454,298 for microcredit, supporting more than 16,000 people living in communities where Whole Foods Market sources product. As a valued partner in Whole Foods Market, you can take action in this mission to alleviate poverty by participating in the 2013 Calendar. As 100% of the proceeds fund microlending projects and the average loan size is $162, your support will go far!
