Who We Are

Lite Foot Environmental Foundation aims to create a
greener, more sustainable future through community initiatives focused on environmental education, programming and tools to help you reduce, reuse and upcycle your way into an eco-friendly lifestyle.

How did we get here?

We’ve embarked on an exciting journey. If you live in Savannah, you may have already heard of our sister refillery and storefront, Lite Foot Company. Lite Foot Company laid the foundation for our commitment to sustainable living by offering eco-conscious products and services to the community. We have made significant progress in diverting plastic from local landfills, but there’s so much work still to do. As our vision grew, so did our goals.

Lite Foot Environmental Foundation aims to:

  • Pursue initiatives focused on education, reuse and upcycling

  • Develop a K-8 education program and a community speaking series that includes sustainability camps and curriculum for youth, and empowering tools through knowledge-sharing for adults

  • Launch a Reuse Program fostering a culture of sharing and exchange, reinvigorating items and reducing waste

  • Launch the Upcycling Program, breathing new life into materials otherwise headed to landfills and igniting passion for sustainable fashion and art

Lite Foot Foundation allows us to help our neighbors and communities through creative initiatives while preserving the areas we live in, keeping litter off our beautiful streets, and so much more.

As we embark on this new chapter, we hope you’ll join us and be a part of our unwavering commitment to a healthier, greener tomorrow. Together, we can build a legacy of sustainability for generations to come.

One step at a time.
