š¢ We have an update to share...B Local Vancouver is now B Local British Columbia! This name change reflects the work weāve been doing and the community weāve been building well beyond Vancouver.
š With B Corps across Vancouver Island, the Okanagan, and throughout our beautiful province, it felt important that our name truly represent the scope of our community and where weāre headed next.
Same mission, same values, and the same commitment to using business as a force for good, now with a name that better reflects our province-wide community! Weāre excited for whatās ahead and grateful to everyone who continues to help grow and strengthen the B Corp movement across BC.

As a female founded, women-led, certified B Corp, we've always done things differently. And at twenty years young, we're more committed than ever to creating learning spaces worthy of the children inside them.
We know choosing better isn't always easy ā budgets are tight, procurement is complicated, and the right decision often loses to the convenient one. Thatās why we're offering financial assistance across three project tiers, scaled to your project size, for schools and centers ready to build learning environments that last.
Orders placed in June arrive by September, ready for the new school year.
We're also donating a portion of every June order to fellow B Corp, Mom's First (US) and the Canadian Child Care Federation (Canada) ā because the cycle of care doesn't stop at the classroom door.

To bring our #Bcorp celebration to a close, here is Partner and President, Patty Jones, answering: "Why does PS&Co being apart of a B Corp matter?"
We asked a few PS&Co leaders why working at a Certified B Corporation⢠matters to them. š¤
Partner and SVP, Rob Newell answers the question: "What actions are you proud of that have been implemented at PS&Co?"

For B Corp Month, we asked our Founder and Managing Director, Kari Kylo, how her work contributes to the B Corp movement and why working at a Certified B Corporation⢠matters to her:
āAt SOMA, we help purpose-driven organizations communicate the impact of their work with clarity and credibility, so solutions that benefit people and the planet can reach the audiences that matter most.
Being a B Corp reflects how we approach our work every day. We partner with organizations working in areas like climate innovation, health and wellness, and the circular economy, helping translate complex ideas into stories that build trust, attract partners, and move important solutions forward.ā
