We Care About the Planet
We are committed to partnering with initiatives that help shape the future by rethinking our relationship with the
environment and creating a regenerative society.
The main contribution we want to make is to protect the natural environment.
So that the next generations can live as freely as we can today.

Coming Together to Protect the Planet
Some of us know where to go, and some of us need a little push. Here you’ll find something for both. We’re offering a way for every single person in the world to be a part of creating change.
Numbers talk back, and the Conqueror community makes a huge impact. Whether you help forests regrow or reduce ocean waste by collecting plastic bottles, our app provides two ways you can get involved. How will you answer the call?

Exercise with a Goal
Doing a good deed not only helps the planet and all future generations but also helps you stick with your fitness goals because it improves the way you feel about yourself.
You will be even more motivated to reach the 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% milestones on your challenges. You might run that extra mile or go out even when having an off day.
Help solve the climate crisis in a way that makes sense for you today: choose the initiative that speaks more to you in the App.
7,864,991 Trees Planted
To make this happen, we partnered with Eden Projects — a Non-Profit Organization that has planted over 400 million trees through its reforestation projects.
Help Reduce Poverty
Planting trees in these areas help alleviate extreme poverty and provides employment and a sustainable resource for impoverished communities worldwide.
18,382,000 Bottles Stopped
To make this happen, we collaborated with Plastic Bank — a social enterprise that has stopped the equivalent of over 1.75 billion plastic bottles from entering the ocean to date.
Plastic Bank empowers the regenerative society. They build ethical recycling ecosystems in coastal communities and reprocess the materials for reintroduction into the global supply chain.

Improve Lives in Vulnerable Coastal Communities
Collectors receive bonuses for the materials they collect which helps them provide basic family necessities such as groceries, cooking fuel, school tuition, and health insurance.
By collecting with Plastic Bank, Collectors can increase their incomes by up to 40%, providing access to the goods and services we take for granted in the Global North.
