  Whole Planet Foundation Fundraiser

  Want to make a difference in the world but do not know where to start?  In the months of February and March, Whole Foods Market cashiers will be taking register donations for the Whole Planet Foundation.  100% of the donations generated will go directly to the micro-lending programs in 17 countries around the world.  Last year, our passionate customers and team members raised over $1 million. The Foundation's mission is to create economic partnerships with the poor in those developing-world communities that supply our stores with product. The Whole Planet Foundation seeks to unleash the energy and creativity of every human being they work with in order to create wealth and prosperity in emerging economies.  Help us reach our 2010 goal of  $1.5 million and be a part of this global solution to eradicate poverty.  Stay tuned for special in store events and for more information on the Whole Planet Foundation visit www.wholeplanetfoundation.org.
