Giving Back
We strive to do business in a brighter way, where we take responsibility for the impact of our business on not only the environment but also society. We are proud to be supporting the Starlight Children’s Foundation and donate 25p for every planitgreen toner purchased
Starlight helps to brighten the lives of over half a million seriously and terminally ill children each year, by granting them once-in-a-lifetime wishes and providing entertainment for children in hospitals and hospices throughout the UK.
From March 2012 through your planitgreen purchases, we have donated over £30,000 to Starlight Children’s Foundation. For every pound that is donated, 92p is put towards the cause.
