"Ecosia is a search engine based in Berlin, Germany. It donates 80% of its profits to nonprofit organizations that focus on reforestation" [1]
"80% of profits will be distributed among charities and non-profit organizations. The remaining 20% will be put aside for a rainy day." [2]
"Ekoru.org is a search engine dedicated to saving the planet. The company donates 60% of revenue generated from clicks on sponsored search results to partner organizations who work on climate change issues" [3]
While Ecosia is not technically a non-profit, no one can sell Ecosia shares at a profit.
> Ecosia says that it was built on the premise that profits wouldn’t be taken out of the company. In 2018 this commitment was made legally binding when the company sold a 1% share to The Purpose Foundation, entering into a ‘steward-ownership’ relationship.
> The Purpose Foundation's steward-ownership of Ecosia legally binds Ecosia in the following ways:
- Shares can't be sold at a profit or owned by people outside of the company and
- No profits can be taken out of the company.
