EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY - Sustainable business has a responsibility to work alongside under-resourced populations and communities of color to address historical disparate impacts affecting members of these communities due to public policy or market-based actions. We are highlighting the potential role of the business community as advocates for business practices and civic priorities that advance social and environmental justice. We are engaging businesses in an active process to identify and eliminate racism, while working to decrease barriers to participation in sustainability for diverse groups. The Equity Program has become a signature initiative of the modern SBF, regarded as a model for white-led organizations in the states sustainability movement.
Expenses $101,291

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
