For Immediate Release Contact: Bailee Christmas baileechristmas@dhana.com Certified B Corporations Ben & Jerry’s, Dhana Inc., Seventh Generation Lead 2,600 Companies Launching the ‘Vote Every Day Campaign’ Top Business Leaders Join Forces to Show People How They Can Continue Voting Their Values After Election Day (Sausalito, California)— Certified B Corporations—a global community of more than 2,600 companies using the power of business to solve social and environmental problems—have launched the “Vote Every Day” campaign following the midterm elections. The launch of the campaign comes at a critical moment when voters have just finished casting their ballots in one of the most consequential elections in recent history. Voting is one of the most important acts any person can do. Once ballots are cast on Election Day, people can continue to vote their values every day by supporting B Corps. Certified B Corporations, like Dhana, balance purpose and profit and believe that big societal issues, including the need for equity, high-quality jobs and environmental sustainability, cannot rest in the hands of government alone. The “Vote Every Day” campaign allows people to vote with their choices of products and services throughout their daily lives. By supporting B Corps, people can vote their values with the purchases they make, where they work, and the companies they do business with. “Our children are an inspiration and promise for a sustainable future. Dhana believes in investing in our youth, our next generation global ambassadors, through the connection between fashion and the impact it has on social and environmental factors. As well as standing up and speaking out for all people behind the clothes we wear. By giving a voice to our workers and the environment we will create empathy amongst our fellow human beings and be a force for good in this world,” explains Shamini Dhana, CEO and Founder of Dhana Inc. “People have a voice beyond the ballet box. People have the power to vote for what they believe in everyday by supporting brands that reflect their values. People deserve to know what their money supports, and by choosing B Corps, they can rest assured the products and services they purchase are creating an equitable and just society,” says Anthea Kelsick, Chief Marketing Dhana Inc.
