Yellowbook Corporate Responsibility
By maintaining the highest standards of corporate responsibility in
the workplace, the environment and the community, we deliver value
to our users, advertisers, and employees.
Our mission is to connect consumers with businesses in their community.
As a result, we have a deep connection to the people we serve and the communities they live in
We believe that getting involved and giving back is the right thing to do.
We hope it makes a difference!
Here are just a few of our initiatives:
The Environment: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
Yellowbook recognizes the importance of publishing environmentally
friendly products. We reduce, re-use and recycle whenever we can,
wherever we can. To that end, we are:
- Increasing the percent of waste product in our paper
- Partnering with paper suppliers with sustainable forests
- Printing directories with biodegradable inks and adhesives
- Reducing our carbon "footprint" with a more friendly printing process
- Controlling the size and weight of our directories
- Reducing our electricity use
Join Us in Recycling
A key element in the success of our efforts depends on you. We
invite you to recycle. Through our industry-exclusive partnership
with Earth 911, we are pleased to
offer you with a link to an extensive environmental resource with
additional national, regional, and local recycling information.
Raise Money For Your Charity. Distribute Yellowbook Directories.
A great way for nonprofit groups to earn extra income. Yellowbook invites individuals, groups, schools, and organizations to deliver yellow pages directories to the doorsteps of residents and businesses in your community. There is no selling involved.
In exchange, we will offer a donation to your group. Call 1-800-373-3280 to get your organization involved.
