A company that has helped other Nebraska firms become certified B corporations has decided to take the plunge itself.
SEAchange, a business consulting and philanthropic advising firm, announced last week that it has become the state's sixth B corp. and the fourth based in Lincoln.
The B corp. designation, awarded by nonprofit organization B Lab, signals SEAchange has met the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
SEAchange also has become a registered Benefit Corporation through the State of Nebraska and a member of 1% for the Planet, having committed to contributing 1% of its annual revenue to environmental causes.
“We are excited to join this international community of leaders using business as a force for good,” said Kyle Cartwright, SEAchange cofounder and chief operating officer. “We feel fortunate to live and work in a community with so many other purpose-driven businesses. We are just one of many.”
