| Goods | Despite being a start-up, just two weeks after its founding Marquart & Small made a $177,000 donation to a lobbying group called Pledge 2 Protect, a nonprofit that had been founded three months earlier to fight New York City's plan to build a marine waste transfer station on the Upper East Side that would haul away garbage by barge. |
| Notes | Pledge 2 Protect has spent heavily on lobbyists and consultants in a thus far unsuccessful attempt to sway Mayor Bill de Blasio to cancel those plans. Through December 2013, Marquart & Small would end up giving a total of nearly $700,000 to Pledge 2 Protect. |
