support your friends

here's how it works if you're sponsoring someone

1. Read about their challenge

Find out what they’re doing and why they need your support.

2. Browse the DoActions

Sponsor them by flicking through the categories and choosing a DoAction that suits you. They range from cycling to work and washing your clothes at 30°C to installing solar panels – there’ll definitely be something there for you.

3. Make your pledge

Once you’ve settled on your DoAction(s), fill in a few simple details to help us calculate the carbon savings you could make. Your sponsorship pledge is then posted on your friend’s DoNation Page.

4. Do it!

Do your DoAction(s) for the following two months. We’ll send you useful advice and reminders (but no spam) to help you along the way.

5. Donate it

After two months we’ll ask you to confirm how you got on; only at this stage is your contribution officially donated to your friend. And yes, the system is based on trust and honesty.

“Sponsoring with money is very dull - I hate the idea that we just pay for things we feel guilty about instead of actually doing something about it.” - Will, a sponsor.

“It also gave me something to talk about around the dinner table – ‘I'm eating vegetarian today because this girl I know is cycling to Morrocco!..." - Zara, a sponsor.
