Sustainability and green initiatives

We are proud to sponsor new Everence Hydration Stations at
the Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds!

These new stations provide visitors to the fairgrounds with a place to hydrate throughout the year. The stations, which can be found throughout the fairgrounds, include both a water bottle filling station, as well as water misters.

Water bottle filling station and water misters

With the water bottle filling stations, guests to the fairgrounds can bring their own reusable water bottles instead of having to use plastic water bottles, cutting down on waste produced.   

At Everence, we are committed to being good stewards of the earth. We live out this commitment in many different facets of our work. 

Through our services, we help our clients and members incorporate these values into their daily lives through our green loans and stewardship investing. 

With Everence, you can integrate your faith and finances, and protect the earth while doing so. 

We’re also committed to doing our part as an organization to help care for the planet.

For example, our corporate headquarters located in Goshen is a LEED-certified building, meaning it was built and is maintained to the highest standard of sustainability. Surrounding the building is landscaping that emphasizes native plant growth and rainwater retention, including over 170 trees that were added in 2022.
