The Buzz on SBN

About SBN
The mission of the Sustainable Business Network
of Greater Philadelphia is to build a just, green, and
thriving economy in the Greater Philadelphia region.
We accomplish this by educating and growing a broad
base of local, independent businesses and educating
policy makers and the public.
The Sustainable Business Network cultivates socially and environmentally
responsible commerce in the Philadelphia region by providing our membership with assessment, education, advocacy and business development
opportunities. SBN works with businesses from startups to older companies
who want to create or maintain organizations that respect their employees,
value the community and protect the earth.
The Sustainable Business Network works with companies who are at many
different phases of the sustainable business continuum: startups up to
approximately three years old who want to insure that their business is
sustainable from the outset; emerging business that are already sustainable
and want to continue to find ways to deepen their contribution to the
community; and successful legacy businesses with little or no socially and
environmentally responsible efforts that seek the optimal path to make
those changes.
How does SBN differ from other business and environmental organizations?
Although the Sustainable Business Network is not a consulting agency, the
organization provides tools for local businesses who want to move in a more
sustainable direction. SBN can bring to light many ways for companies to
become more involved in the sustainability movement and move toward the
goal of creating a sustainable economy.
How do you know that the companies in this directory are sustainable busi
nesses? SBN member companies are required to benchmark their social
and environmental practices by completing the B Survey within one year of
joining SBN. After a year of research, SBN determined that the B Corporation
Survey is the best tool on the market to measure the social and environmental
impact of small businesses. Furthermore, SBN member companies must be
locally-owned and independently held.
SBN is the only organization on Philadelphia’s business scene that brings
leaders together who actively support each other in generating profit while
advocating for employee and business practices that are fair and just, support
their local community, and protect the earth.

The Buzz on SBN
“As an SBN member, I finally feel as though I am part
of a community where my membership matters and I
am surrounded by like-minded people who have similar
values and beliefs. Joining SBN was one of the best
decisions I made in 2009!”
—Betsy Spivak, Betsy Spivak Insurance Services
“Being an SBN member has provided Bennett Compost
with opportunities and exposure that I did not have before
joining. They have been a great resource for us as we
strive to make wide scale composting a reality.”
—Tim Bennett, Bennett Compost
“SBN puts a new spin on an ancient wisdom. Bring together liked minded/hearted people and miracles occur!
And that is just what happens at the Annual SBN Holiday
Party Fundraiser and Crafts Fair. Thank you SBN for
putting together, so peacefully, a wonderful event…again.”
—Amy Ragsdale, Amy Ragsdale Design
“JEVS Human Services has been working closely with
SBN’s Green Economy Department to develop employer
roundtables that will inform job training organizations
about careers in the green economy. We are proud to
partner with SBN on this work and look forward to the
year ahead.”

“For the past year, the Federation of Neighborhood
Centers, a network of 12 community centers, has partnered with SBN’s Green Economy Department to design
an innovative green job training program for low-skilled
job seekers. This hard-working department has provided
critical expertise with respect to identifying and building
partnerships with both trainers and employers in emerging industries. Their tireless efforts helped us build a
neighborhood-based green job readiness program that
we will launch in January 2010.”
—Diane Cornman-Levy,
Federation of Neighborhood Centers
“SBN’s Green Economy Department keeps me connected
with the important issues in the Green Jobs Movement.
Thanks for doing this work and keeping us informed.”
—Barbara Rahke, Philaposh
“It is great that SBN is looking for business opportunities
for member companies. We have found our membership
to be extremely beneficial, and as our company continues
growing, we plan to support SBN as much as we can.”
—Paul D. Spiegel, Practical Energy Solutions
“In the short time that we have been SBN members many
doors have opened for us, including a feature article in
the March issue of GRID.”
