celebrating earth day

Happy Earth Day! Today marks the 50th Anniversary of the first Earth Day, and while celebrating Earth Day may look a little different this year, we can all still do our part to help alleviate the strain on Mother Nature.

This Women Owned Wednesday, we are exclusively spotlighting women-owned businesses helping out our planet, from reducing waste and harsh chemicals to protecting our oceans and trees. Read on to get your green on!

We asked you to send us an email and tell us three things you are most grateful for. We've received such an overwhelming response that we're featuring a weekly gratitude round-up! So keep sharing your gratitude lists and help us spread some joy within our network and beyond.

Gratitude Round-Up

What our readers are grateful for this week:

1. My family
2. My friends
3. My planet

Reminder: Here's how you can do your part to support women-owned businesses.
