Last month, Elise and Sean attended the B Corp Champions Retreat in Portland, Oregon to represent UncommonGoods and learn what we can do to impact our team, our community, our customer, and the environment in more positive ways. Presentations from the retreat have been saved under the sustainability folder in the W Drive. The highlights included the B Inspired presentations on the final day of the retreat.
