6% of the proceeds from the sales of Jane & Me books go to support the Jane Goodall Institute, whose Roots & Shoots program empowers young people to make a difference. The Jane & Me brand is also a member of 1% for the Planet—a global network whose members contribute at least one percent of their annual sales to environmental causes.

Roots & Shoots provides the resources to encourage and motivate young people to take action on issues that matter to them. Motivate your family to do something about the challenges you see in your community and our world— issues like social justice, pollution, or climate change. This Toolkit will help you use the Roots & Shoots 4-Step Formula to better understand your community, the issues that matter to you, your ability to take action, and what you can do through a project to make things better.  Learn more at rootsandshoots.org and follow us @rootsandshoots.
