<p>Glad is a mission-locked UK non-profit focused on cleaning up legacy greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.</p><p>We exist for one simple reason - to help fix climate change in a practical, measurable way.</p><p>We do this through the national Climate Draw. People enter, and their entry fees are pooled into a Climate Pot. That pot funds independently verified, durable carbon removal projects.</p><p>Each season we set a clear, public impact target. In Season 4, our community is working towards removing 250,000kg of legacy emissions. When that milestone is reached, a £10,000 cash prize is unlocked.</p><p>From our pilot phase, we have already funded the clean-up of 59,000kg of greenhouse gases. This is early stage, but real.</p><p>Our model is transparent and disciplined:</p><ul><li><p>60% of entry fees go directly to climate clean-up</p></li><li><p>20% funds the prize pot</p></li><li><p>20% covers operating costs and growth</p></li></ul><p>Prizes help draw people in. Alongside the main cash prize, values-aligned brands contribute additional rewards, unlocked at impact milestones. Partners so far include Suri, Naked Paper and smol.</p><p>We are building a self-reinforcing cycle of impact that scales globally:</p><p>The more people that join, the more climate clean-up we can fund.</p><p>That clean-up proves the model works and builds confidence with members and with brand partners.</p><p>As partners come on board, the prizes get stronger - increasing the incentive for people to take part.</p><p>Over time, what starts small becomes something powerful and global.</p><p>Our long-term ambition is bold. We have defined “Goal 1” as the removal of 1 billion tonnes of legacy emissions. Today, we are building the foundations carefully and properly. </p><p>Good governance and financial rigour are central to that.</p>
