Sumthing is a platform where you give to nature and see results. When you donate, we use our cutting-edge technology to show you the impact of your contribution in real-time. You can track how seeds grow into forests, baby corals evolve into reefs, and plastic is removed from oceans. Your donations turn into tangible actions, and we provide proof of it all.
Sumthing is a social enterprise, not a traditional charity. We put purpose over profit through steward-ownership, ensuring transparency and accountability in all our operations. Our goal is to restore more nature than we lose each year by making nature restoration an engaging and awesum experience.
Steward Ownership ensures that Sumthing’s mission remains at the forefront, with decision-making rights held by stewards connected to our purpose, not profit-driven shareholders. This structure guarantees that all profits are reinvested into our mission, aligning our operations with long-term environmental sustainability and transparency.

Our mission is to accelerate the restoration of nature by turning donating to it into an awesum experience. We aim to restore more nature than we lose each year by making the impact of donations visible and engaging.
We use the Sumthing fee from your donations to build and maintain our platform, validate donations, and visualize results. For every €6 donated, €1 goes towards these efforts. We provide transparency by showing exactly how your contributions are used and the impact they create. Our technology and continuous monitoring ensure that your donations are making the maximum positive results.
Sumthing stands out by providing radical transparency and engaging, tech-driven experiences. Our platform allows you to see the direct results of your donations, making the impact tangible and shareable. We integrate advanced technologies like drones, satellites, and AI to monitor and visualize restoration efforts, ensuring your contributions are effective and visible. And, our steward ownership structure ensures we’ll stay a force for good, for good.
We are always open to speak to talent that wants to contribute to our mission. Shoot over an email to info@sumthing.org and maybe we’ll have you on board of our mission soon!

It’s an easy and impactful way for businesses to contribute to environmental sustainability.

No, we don't offer carbon credits. While some think carbon credits can play a role in offsetting emissions, we believe there are better ways to make a positive environmental impact. Publications by Bloomberg, FollowTheMoney, and the Guardian have highlighted some of the challenges associated with carbon credits in their current form. Instead, we enable companies to compensate for their emissions through an internal carbon fee.
An internal carbon fee is a self-imposed financial charge that companies place on their carbon emissions. The charges are invested in environmental initiatives like, to name one, nature restoration projects. What a coincidence! Carbon fees encourage businesses to reduce emissions and invest in sustainability, in a fair and transparent way. Reach out to learn more about this rapidly growing movement.
No, we don't help businesses become carbon neutral, and we don’t believe any business should be making this claim. Instead, we encourage companies to integrate broader sustainability practices and continuously work towards reducing negative impacts. At the same time, we help you to make a difference for nature in a visible and engaging way, motivating your customers to do the same.
We handpick the best nature restoration projects worldwide through a rigorous selection process. Projects are evaluated based on their proven track record, effectiveness, community involvement, scalability, and accountability. Independent ecological and social experts help score these projects, and we continuously monitor their performance using advanced technology.
If you believe your nature restoration project meets our criteria and has a significant impact, we’d love to hear from you. Reach out to us, and we’ll guide you through the application and evaluation process.
