How does the enviroFund work?
Tap, swipe, pay.
With every purchase you make on an enviro Visa credit card, 5% of profits go to the enviroFund.
Fund innovation.
Innovative and climate-friendly businesses and organizations can apply for funds to help bring their community improvement ideas to life.
Enjoy a reimagined world.
Enjoy the amazing solutions created — initiatives that change how and what you consume, and how things are made.
Celebrating our wins.
See how the enviroFund has helped make a difference in our communities over the years.
To the ones who say change is impossible, we say just watch.
This fund exists because progressive ideas, the ones that we need, also need people who will give them a chance. When a business-slash-sort-of-like-a-non-profit doesn’t fit the checkboxes on a form, or others that don’t fit a mold, they can get ignored.
And we refuse to ignore real solutions.
Beyond the enviroFund, 30% of Vancity’s profits go to societal and environmental solutions through Shared Success. Everyday deposits support our local economy. Which means, just by using a Vancity chequing account , or business account, you help make a difference.
