2021-22 ANNUAL REPORT DOCUMENT

Created by the Corporate Flexibility Act of 2011, the California Benefit Corporation is a corporate form specifically designed for social enterprises to pursue both for-profit and non-profit objectives. Benefit Corporations allow corporate officers and directors to take into account the triple bottom line of profit, people, and planet when making business decisions.

A Benefit Corporation’s articles of incorporation must state that the corporation is a Benefit Corporation, and that one of its purposes is to create a general public benefit. As such, a company obligates itself to create a general public benefit by becoming a Benefit Corporation. A Benefit Corporation may additionally include any “specific public benefit” adopted by the corporation in its articles.
