HEAL THE PLANET

What HEAL THE PLANET does

HEAL THE PLANET (legally Heal The Planet Together Inc.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization domiciled in Florida and operating primarily in Southeast Florida. Its mission is to educate and empower children about how daily choices affect personal health and planetary wellbeing, operationalized through a portfolio of free and donation-based community programs: the SEED Program (a holistic, hands-on curriculum covering ecological awareness, sustainability, mindfulness, identity, systems thinking, and the power of choice), Young SEEDs in The Park (a free 2.5-hour nature program for ages 5-12), monthly Beach Cleanups in partnership with the City of Fort Lauderdale, Guided Nature Tours at Snyder Park, Sports Activities, and an Online SEED Program for grades 4-8. The organization reports cumulative impact of 15,702 children impacted and 5,304 pounds of trash removed across 90+ cleanups.

The technology base is minimal and undifferentiated: the organization runs on a standard Squarespace website with no proprietary features, no app, and no API. Distribution is entirely regional and largely in-person, anchored at Fort Lauderdale parks and beaches, with a small digital content arm (blog, newsletter, 100+ Ways To Heal The Planet articles, recipes). Marketing leverages Google Ad Grants, email newsletter, content marketing, and community events rather than a product-led motion.

The revenue model is donation- and grant-based rather than transactional. Funding sources span community foundations (CFBroward), corporate CSR (Holman, Schilling Silvers), national nonprofit funders (AEO Foundation/Sprout, Bass Pro Outdoor Fund), local community partners (CSC Broward, UR Health Benefits, Kingdom Church), and platform support (Google Ad Grants). Pricing is effectively free at point of consumption for most programs, with the Young SEEDs in The Park program explicitly described as donation-based. There is a small e-commerce channel through the Heal The Planet Shop. The organization is led operationally by Noelia Suarez (primary contact) with formal Board of Directors structure referenced on the site; no headcount or annual budget figures are disclosed.
