Sweet, founded by Shannon Wentworth and Jen Rainen in April 2008, is a travel company, which sells eco-friendly vacation packages and tours to the lesbian community. Sweet's mission is to offer vacations that empower and motivate guests to achieve their personal, professional, and philanthropic goals.[1] Sweet travelers or "Sweeties," have raised over $500,000 in cash and in-kind donations, planted 6,217 trees, removed 407 bags of trash from beaches, and revitalized five schools and parks. In furtherance of Sweet's efforts to help the environment, the company teamed up with CarbonFund.org to help reforest a large area along the Tensas River in Louisiana.[2]
