Green Alliance App Gives Mobile Touch to Sustainability

For the Green Alliance, sharing the stories of sustainable businesses to community members is essential to advancing the local, green economy. Since the GA’s launch in 2008, the organization has evolved to engage the community in both outreach and scope. It should only be so fitting that in this day and age of smart phones and social media, the unique work of the GA can extend the catch phrase, “there’s an app for that.”

The Green Alliance app – available on the iPhone – is easily searchable through the Apple App Store, and feature’s the organization’s trademark yellow sunflower logo. While the app is available for anyone to download, only Green Alliance members or “Green Card holders” can activate their digital Green Card.  But non-members can make the convenient decision to join right through the GA app (or online at www.greenalliance.biz/join.)

Once downloaded, users will be prompted to enter a username and password, along with their four-digit Green Alliance number. At that point, app users will be able to show a digital version of their Green Card at GA businesses, making “going green and saving green” easier than ever.

The app will also feature a comprehensive Business Partner Directory, complete with contact information, map, Green Card discount, as well as their Sustainability score, derived from the comprehensive 30-question evaluation given to every business that joins the GA.

Users will also be able to use the app to connect to the GA’s Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube pages, as well as recent stories involving the organization and its business partners.
