Celebrating our 1st B Corp Bday!

Yesterday, May 19, 2024, marked our first anniversary as a Certified B Corporation. The year has flown by, but not without making meaningful progress in our work and in our community, including:

• Our team has grown by more than 30%, and we served just over 60 clients in 2023, marking a significant milestone for us. We are truly proud to be the sustainability partners of choice for organizations committed to making a difference. This growth and success is a testament to our collective dedication and hard work.
• Through our LOVErdis program, we concluded work with our third annual recipient,?Habitat for Humanity Omaha, and we’re thrilled to begin working with our newest winner, Nemours Children’s Health.?
• The JEDIA team has been actively working to improve our Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accountability statement and practices. In line with this, the Verdis team as a whole has completed their "My Why's," which not only illustrates their personal calls to action but also showcases the growth and development of each individual in their commitment to JEDIA work.

To celebrate our first B Corp BDay, we asked several teammates to share why they're proud to work for a B Corp. Here’s what they had to say:
