How Community Clicks aligns to B Corp Certification

In an era where businesses are increasingly held accountable for their social and environmental impact, B Corp certification has emerged as a powerful benchmark for organisations that prioritise purpose alongside profit. B Corps commit to high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. But how does Community Clicks fit into the B Corp framework?

The answer is simple: creating a digitally inclusive society aligns directly with B Corp values by addressing inequality, fostering economic participation, and improving wellbeing.

What is B Corp Certification?

B Corp certification is awarded to companies that meet rigorous standards across five key areas:

Governance – Ethical business practices and mission-driven decision-making.
Workers – Employee well-being, fair wages, and professional development.
Community – Commitment to equity, diversity, and local impact.
Environment – Sustainability and responsible resource use.
Customers – Ethical customer relationships and impact-driven products/services.

To become certified, a business must achieve a minimum score of 80 out of 200 on the B Impact Assessment, demonstrating meaningful contributions to social and environmental good.

How Community Clicks Supports B Corp Goals

A digital and social inclusion program focused on older adults aligns with multiple areas of the B Impact Assessment and strengthens a company’s impact-driven mission.

1. Community Impact: Promoting Social Equity and Inclusion

B Corps are expected to address inequality and support underserved communities. Older adults often face digital exclusion, which limits their ability to access essential services, connect with loved ones, and participate in the modern economy.

Community Clicks helps by providing digital skills training and access to technology empowers older adults, fostering greater independence and economic inclusion.

2. Economic Opportunities and Workforce Development

Ageism in employment remains a significant barrier. Many older adults struggle to re-enter the workforce due to lack of digital skills, despite having valuable experience.

Community Clicks digital inclusion program can train older adults in technology and online job search skills, supporting their financial security and workforce participation.

3. Wellbeing and Mental Health: Tackling Social Isolation

Social isolation is a growing public health issue, particularly for older individuals who are not digitally connected. Loneliness can lead to serious mental and physical health concerns.

Community Clicks teaches digital communication tools like video calls and social media, reducing isolation and improving mental well-being.

4. Sustainable and Ethical Business Practices

B Corps must demonstrate that their business practices are ethical, inclusive, and sustainable. Digital inclusion efforts ensure that aging populations are not left behind in a rapidly evolving technological landscape.

Community Clicks partners with companies to provide free devices learners can take home together with training on how to use them ensuring equitable access to digital resources.

5. Partnerships and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

A key component of B Corp certification is collaboration for social good. Many companies are looking for ways to expand their CSR initiatives and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals.

Businesses can support or fund Community Clicks as part of their social impact commitments, contributing to B Corp-aligned initiatives while making a measurable difference.
