WePledge 1% Cause of the Month: 3 Ways to Celebrate Earth Month

What's this blog post about?

Twilio is celebrating Earth Month and recognizing Earth Day on April 22nd, with a focus on taking small actions to fight climate change. The company's WePledge 1% program aims to inspire individuals to make a difference by committing 1% of their personal time or resources to do good. To support this effort, Twilio is sponsoring the Earth Month EcoChallenge, which provides several "challenges" to help participants adopt lifestyle changes that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The company also invites developers to submit coding project concepts aiming to make a lasting environmental impact and offers up to $500 in credits to support their ideas. Additionally, TwilioQuest, an educational video game designed to teach new learners how to code, will be played throughout April to help plant 10,000+ trees. The WePledge 1% community is encouraged to join the movement for good by signing up and learning more at wepledge.org.
