People, Planet, Profits - The Triple Bottom Line Standard

Foghorn adopts the Triple Bottom Line Standard as the guiding set of values and criteria for measuring our organization's success.

The Triple Bottom Line (3BL) Standard implies focusing not only on the financial bottom line, but also the social and environmental bottom lines. This means that corporate motivations must be driven by a natural balance between the business's economic, social, and environmental responsibilities.
