Corp with purpose?

Lucy writes over on Philanthropy 2173 about it and the few founding orgs celebrating. Her next post also further explains. I am still trying to understand, but I have hope…

She writes:

What is a B Corporation? It is a new designation for commercial enterprises that actively seek to produce social and environmental benefits along with profits. While not yet part of corporate law, the B Corporation founders aim to first build a movement of companies that meet certain standards, and then change the law to recognize these entities.
