Raiz is planting for our planet – and it’s thanks to your efforts!
We at Raiz are proud of the support from our customers in December whose efforts assisted us in planting trees. The small efforts from our customers have added up to make a big difference, whether it is by improving their finances or helping in our effort to fight the negative effects of climate change.
Thanks to your referrals in December 2020, we were able to add thousands of users to our Raiz community, planting 1,664 trees whilst paying out $16,640 in referrals into customer accounts!
It is estimated 10-15 trees will sequester one tonne of carbon over 30 years, so that is over 130 tonnes of carbon sequestered by our Raiz community!
Trees bring many valuable benefits to the environment. The trees that you help plant:
- sequester carbon
- help reduce soil salinity
- help combat wind and water erosion
- enhance biodiversity
- restore habitat for native animals
There are an increasing number of companies and industries focussing on protecting the climate for the long term, and this is also increasing accessibility for greener investment opportunities. If socially responsible investing is important to you, Raiz offers an Emerald portfolio, which focuses on companies that are socially responsible. To view, go to the Raiz App Home Screen or Side Menu > Invest > Portfolio. For more information on fees, click here.
We also have our Offsetters program, which for $3.70 a month, reduces your carbon footprint and creates impact by collectively supporting natural Australian disaster relief. You’ll also go in the running for a chance to win prizes!
Thanks again for being so much more than a Raiz investor!
