WE HAVE UPDATED OUR GREEN LEADER APPLICATIONS
We realize that business leaders have a limited amount of time and not all businesses look alike, so we have created three different online applications to streamline the process of applying for Green Leader status. Depending on the size or type of your business, you may now fill out one of these online forms and submit it. If you have pictures that will help clarify a point or questions about the form, please email them to rockfordsuscom@gmail.com. Your appliation will be reviewed by our committee and you will be notified of your status within ten business days.
Green Leader Application for Small Retail or Non-Profit
Green Leader Application for Large Commercial or Industrial Businesses
Green Leader Application for Food Service Industry
The rules are still the same. Rockford businesses are eligible to receive a Green Leader Environmental Stewardship designation awarded by the Rockford Sustainability Committee, which will be reviewed on an annual basis. To qualify, a business must perform sustainable activities from a variety of categories. There are three Green Leader designations based on your total sustainability score: Gold, Silver, and Bronze.
Once a business qualifies for one of the designations and is approved by Rockford SusCom, your business will be given an official Green Leader logo sticker signifying your designated level. The sticker is to be displayed prominently on the window of your business and can also be used on marketing materials (menu, website, social media, etc.). SusCom will highlight your business on the SusCom Facebook page, below on the website, and in the Rockford Squire newspaper. Thank you for your commitment to a sustainable future for Rockford!
