Earth Share of New Jersey (ESNJ) was founded in 1994 by 16 of the states leading NJ based environmental groups. Originally known as the Environmental Fund for New Jersey, the organization was formed to enable members to participate in workplace- giving programs for unrestricted funds.

Since then, the Fund has grown to represent 23 local and 38 national environmental organizations, and has become part of Earth Share, a federation of national and international environmental groups. These organizations work tirelessly to make our world a healthier place, free from the dangers of neglect, sprawl and pollution. Our health is in their hands and contributions to Earth Share of New Jersey help all of them continue their efforts for our benefit.
