Offsetter Stories

Tens of thousands of dollars have come from individuals taking the time to offset everything from a bar mitzvah to monthly home heating. Amounts as generous as $10,000 and thoughtful as $4 a month help us provide low-income residents of the Finger Lakes with the tools they need for a happy, comfortable living space.

We love hearing from our offsetters and encourage them to share videos and stories of their trips or the reason why offsetting with the Climate Fund is important to them. If you’re interested in sharing why you, your Carbon Race team, or business offset, please email info@sustainablefingerlakes.org with a story and pictures.
