Pledge for the Planet
Bring Pledge to your club or community

Bring your community together to protect the places you play

Your community already knows how to show up, cheer each other on and work towards a shared goal.

Pledge turns that energy into practical climate action.

Run, walk, swim, ride or do something else altogether. We’ll help everyone take part, track the collective impact and have fun along the way.

Why Pledge works for communities

Give your community something everyone can get behind

Build community spirit

A shared challenge gives your members another reason to turn up, connect and do something positive together.

Give everyone a way to participate

You don’t need to be the fastest, go the furthest or even live in the same place. Every pledge, kilometre, check-in and photo can contribute to the team.

Protect the places you play

Our favourite moments are spent running through parks, swimming in the ocean and riding on trails. Pledge gives your people practical ways to help protect those places.

Make climate action feel possible

We turn a massive issue into simple actions your members can take together. Action is the antidote to despair, especially with your mates alongside you.

Four steps

How a club Mission works

Pledge app screen for selecting or creating a team when joining a mission

1. Rally your crew

Set up your team, share the Mission and give your members something positive to get behind.

Pledge app screen listing pledges with their yearly CO2e and waste savings

2. Make a pledge

Each person chooses a practical environmental action that works for their life. Pledges can reduce CO₂e, reduce waste or drive systems change, once or as an ongoing habit.

3. Get moving and track it

Depending on the Mission, members can run, walk, swim or cycle to collect activity points, complete pledge check-ins and share photos of their actions.

Pledge app impact leaderboard ranking club teams by pledges, CO2e and points

4. See it add up

Follow the leaderboard and see how your community’s pledges, activity and environmental impact grow together. Then celebrate what your team made possible.

Collective kilometres from activities

Just as individual kilometres add up to a team total, individual environmental actions add up to a much bigger collective impact.

Invite Pledge along

Got a regular community session? We’ll come to you.

Our Pledgends are runners, swimmers, cyclists, walkers and all-round active humans too.

Invite us along to a session and we can meet your crew, join the movement and share more about the practical actions your community can take to protect the places you play.

It doesn’t need to be a big formal event. We’ll work around what your community already does.
