“We are proud to work with The Offset Project to reduce our event’s impact on our fragile environment. They are professional, dedicated, and totally committed to reducing waste from our participants, vendors, suppliers, volunteers, and visitors. Their work is effective, inspiring and motivating.”

Doug Thurston, Race Director/Executive Director | Big Sur International Marathon

“One of the biggest challenges we face in our efforts to divert waste from the landfill is the contamination of food scrap material prior to composting. Composting food scraps is a critical part of our waste reduction efforts at Asilomar Conference Grounds and The Offset Project has provided our employees with ongoing educational programs, resources, and inspiration that they need in order to implement successful waste diversion programs.”

Jill Heymsfield, Aramark, Environmental Sustainability Coordinator | Asilomar Conference Grounds

“In partnership with the Monterey Peninsula Foundation, Pebble Beach Company and The Offset Project, we achieved a 95% diversion of all the waste product during the 2014 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am golf tournament week – an event drawing world-renowned golfers, international guests and media, and more than 130,000 spectators. We could not have achieved this success without the leadership of The Offset Project team and their tireless efforts. We are very proud of these results.”

Beat Giger, CEC, AAC, Director of Special Events/Corporate Chef | Pebble Beach Resorts
