2. Organize a Virtual Charity Walk 🚶‍♂️🌍 Set up a virtual or in-person walkathon where participants fundraise per mile walked, raising awareness for sustainability while reducing carbon footprints.

3. Go Paperless with Digital Fundraising 📲 Use platforms like Pledge to set up a seamless online fundraising campaign, including mobile giving options like text-to-donate and QR codes, eliminating waste and maximizing your impact.

4. Sell Sustainable Swag ♻️ Setup an e-commerce shop to sell reusable water bottles, tote bags, or bamboo products with the proceeds donated to environmental causes - perfect for corporate CSR programs and nonprofit merch.

5. Partner with Green Businesses 🌿 Collaborate with eco-conscious brands to donate a portion of their sales to environmental charities throughout April.
