Governance
The B Team places its principles of sustainability, equality and accountability at the heart of its operations and culture. The B Team is committed to being transparent and accountable to its partners and supporters, and to its mission.
How we are funded
More than half of The B Team’s funding comes from its core funders, including our Leaders and Foundations who provide unrestricted support to the organization. We also partner with funders who provide programmatic support for the issues we campaign on.
How we use our funding
Unrestricted funding is allocated across the organization, in line with the priorities set by the Board to achieve our mission. Programmatic funding is distributed based on set objectives and deliverables across our campaigns.
