ELPC Earns Highest Ranking from Chicago Green Office Challenge

April 30, 2012 ELPC’s Chicago headquarters received a “tier 1” ranking — the highest available — in the Chicago Green Office Challenge. The Challenge is a friendly competition that acknowledges participants for their achievements in greening their office spaces and operations. It involves a points system with categories in energy savings, outreach, property management, transportation, and waste/recycling. ELPC is working to make green building practices the norm. Our new LEED Platinum eco-office puts our values into practice, combining innovative technology and forward-thinking design to create a workspace that protects the environment, is healthier for our staff and makes economic sense.

ELPC Ranked in Top 10 Highest-Rated Charities in U.S.

Based on ELPC’s Charity Navigator score on financial strength and management, ELPC is being recognized in the media as among “The 10 Highest-Rated Charities in America: 2011.” ELPC is the only environmental group and the only advocacy group on this list. Moreover, ELPC is the only listed group, which is located between the coasts. Read more on MSN Money and Main Street.
