Beeing a Benefit

Each week we promote non-profits, civic organizations the Arts; small businesses and all around do-gooders. We do this for free.

Why? Because we know the sharing of this information… spotlighting good works, builds relationships and stronger communities. We need encouragement to work together; we need to see the good in humanity. Our readers can depend on BuzzAround to show it.

Since 2009, we have operated as a Social Entrepreneurship, imagineered by Jacquelyn Rose. To institute our work as we grow our readership, this year we will register as a Massachusetts B Corp; officially reporting our goodness.

What is a B- Corp?

“Benefit corporations are corporations organized under Chapter 156A (the professional corporation statute) or Chapter 156D (the business corporations statute) that have elected to be a benefit corporation in their Articles.

“Benefit corporations are similar to traditional for-profit corporations but they differ in one important respect. While directors and officers of traditional for-profit corporations must focus primarily on maximizing financial returns to investors, the directors and officers of benefit corporations are expressly permitted to consider and prioritize the social and environmental impacts of their corporate decision-making.” ( Comm of MA)
