Be A Better Business

As a certified Oregon Benefit Company, we champion the Triple Bottom Line of people, planet, and profit, and we strive to demonstrate empathy, transparency, and honesty in everything we do.

Whether you decide to go the nonprofit or for-profit route, we believe that there are plenty of great ways to be a better business and encourage others to join this progressive movement! Read our Annual Benefit Company Report to learn what we are doing to be a better business.

Steps You Can Take

✦ Develop community and social programming, like educational seminars, skills workshops, social events, or collaborate with folks who are already doing this work.

✦ Partner with impactful nonprofit organizations in the community to support their efforts and bring awareness to their mission.

✦ Donate to or become a sponsor of a nonprofit organization that provides meaningful community programming.

✦ Invest in a socially conscious for-profit company that is solving problems creatively, using intelligence, intentionality, and collaboration.

✦ Instead of creating a new nonprofit, seek out an existing nonprofit that aligns with your services and mission, then develop a fiscal-sponsorship relationship, plan, and agreement with them.

✦ Create a work-sponsored volunteering program to promote a culture of giving back and empathizing with others.

✦ Become a certified Benefit Company as an LLC or corporation in an ever-expanding list of states, or a B Corp, as a U.S.-based corporation.

We were certified by the Oregon-based Benefit Corporations for Good and highly recommend their certifying process. After each certification year, we complete our Benefit Company Annual Report.

✦ Do it all by establishing both a nonprofit and a for-profit branch of your company.
