Hi Bees!!

My online invites donate a portion of the proceeds to save trees. I love that they do this. Is it okay to put it in small writing on the bottom of the invite? “part of the proceeds from this invite have gone towards saving trees along Washington greenway?”

(I get that online invites are contentious issue. I live in a very green city and It was a non-negotiable for Fiance, who works for the environment, so basically if you hate online invites please don’t tell me about it! )

I agree with PP.  There is a reason you are doing online invites, and this explains it, which will make people more ok with receiving one
