Glad Tidings #5: Should Glad be a charity?
Episode Summary
In this episode, we tackle a big question that’s been coming up in our research calls: Should Glad be a charity? We share the reasons we originally considered becoming a nonprofit, why we ultimately decided to stay a for-profit organisation, and how this decision ties directly to maximising our impact on climate change.
We also introduce our new membership model, highlighting exactly what members get (from a digital impact badge to exclusive behind-the-scenes updates). Finally, we share an update on how much greenhouse gas the Glad community has collectively committed to removing in our very first season so far.
