Preserve & Protect.

Businesses should be more than profits.

Businesses should be a force for good in the community.

That is why a core value at Blackrock is conservation.

We must preserve and protect the planet for future generations.

 

What Blackrock is doing.

 

Blackrock pledges 1% of sales to the preservation and restoration of the natural environment. This money goes to groups making a direct impact in my local community.

In 2021, this contribution was awarded to the Harpeth Conservancy.

For 20 years, the Harpeth Conservancy has been working to provide and protect clean water in the Harpeth River.

"To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival."

- Wendell Berry

More than money.

It's easy to donate money and let other people do the work.

However, in addition to donating 1% of sales, I will also be donating my time and volunteering on projects that help protect and preserve natural environments.

The first project is this September with Tennessee State Parks.

For a week, I will be helping maintain a section of backcountry trails in Frozen Head State Park.

More to follow.
