BetterWorld Telecom is partnering with East Bay Green Tours and the Sustainable Business Alliance to sponsor a space in the Sustainable Enterprise Cluster at the brand new David Brower Center in downtown Berkeley, CA. The grand opening event this past Sunday had hundreds of locals and nonprofit professionals exploring this inspiring new facility, named in honor of the legendary environmentalist David Brower.
A LEED certified and architecturally stunning building, the Brower Center was ten years in the making and is designed to create a vibrant community of like-minded individuals and organizations committed to a just and ecologically sustainable society. The building itself has several state-of-the-art conference rooms, a terrace, and an intimate 180 seat theater. On the first floor there is also a beautiful gallery devoted to art and photography that inspires activism and ecological awareness. A wide assortment of non-profits and mission driven businesses now call the Brower Center their home including: Earth Island Institute, Center for EcoLiteracy, Community Alliance with Family Farmers (CAFF), Equity Community Builders, International Rivers and many others.
I’m excited for BetterWorld to participate in this landmark community of world changing non-profits and the opportunity we have to support the vision of the Brower Center, to foster collaborations between like-minded organizations and individuals, engage new people in advocacy and facilitate cross-sector communication and partnerships.
You can find us very very soon (a month or so) on the second floor of the Brower Center in the Sustainable Enterprise Cluster along with Green Jobs Network, Survival International, Green Wave Strategies, and our partners East Bay Green Tours and the Sustainable Business Alliance.
