Common Good Balance Sheet

A Common Good Balance Sheet is a financial statement used by organizations committed to social and ethical values, particularly within the Common Good Economy movement. It highlights not just financial performance but also social, environmental, and community impacts, reflecting how an organization contributes positively to society. Unlike traditional balance sheets focusing solely on profits and assets, this tool assesses the organization’s overall contribution to the common good, fostering transparency and accountability in balancing economic activity with social responsibility.
