Business Forward Foundation

Over the last decade, Business Forward Foundation has built a network of 100,000 small business leaders and chambers of commerce, located in every congressional district and major media market in the country. Business Forward helps these business leaders connect directly with media and policymakers to make the business case on a range of issues, including climate change and clean energy. During the grant term, Business Forward’s Climate and Clean Energy program will publish reports and issue briefs on key clean energy and climate topics, and organize a series of media and advocacy trainings, business round tables, and meetings with decision makers.

Business Forward Foundation seeks to raise awareness with local business leaders across the U.S. about the value of today’s sustainable banks to small businesses; the unsustainable investments traditional banks are making in carbon intensive industries; and the power of sustainable banking and carbon impact disclosure to correct energy, transportation, and agriculture markets.
