What It Means to Be a B Corp

Good Business Goes Beyond Business

B Corp Certification is an independent verification of a company's commitment to meeting high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency. Administered by B Lab, the certification evaluates how a business operates and the impact it has on its employees, customers, communities, and the environment.

In June 2026, Compass officially became a Certified B Corporation, marking a new chapter in our ongoing commitment to responsible business practices and meaningful community impact. For our guests and partners, this means choosing a housing provider that considers more than the bottom line. It means working with a company that believes great hospitality and positive impact should go hand in hand.

Proud to Pledge 1%

We believe businesses have both the opportunity and the responsibility to make a difference in the communities they serve. As a member of Pledge 1%, Compass is committed to dedicating a portion of our resources to charitable initiatives and nonprofit organizations that create meaningful, lasting change.

From supporting families navigating medical challenges to giving back to local communities and advancing environmental initiatives, our commitment to doing good extends beyond the walls of our apartments. We know that even small contributions can create meaningful change when people and businesses work together.

A Helping Hand When It Matters

For families facing medical challenges, being close to care shouldn’t mean being far from the comforts of home.

Through Compass Cares, our charitable housing initiative, we provide discounted and complimentary furnished accommodations to patients and families traveling for medical treatment.

By helping ease the financial burden of temporary housing, we hope to give families one less thing to worry about, so they can focus on what matters most: being together, healing, and moving forward.

Every night provided represents more than a place to stay. It represents time together, a little peace of mind, and the comfort of having a home during an uncertain chapter.

Caring for the Places We Call Home

We recognize that operating furnished housing comes with an environmental impact. That's why we're continually looking for opportunities to improve our practices, collaborate with responsible partners, and make sustainability part of our everyday operations.

    Limiting Our Waste

    Donating Furniture

    We ensure that our furniture, linens, and housewares find a second life. We donate them to local charities and organizations, reducing waste and supporting those in need. This extends the lifecycle of these items and contributes to a circular economy, where resources are reused.

    Doing Our Part

    Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

    We reduce our footprint by recycling our waste in our offices, recycling products in our apartments that are unused, and reducing the number of printed materials we use.

    Our Local Communities

    Biodiversity Conservation

    Each year to celebrate Earth Day, we hand-select a non-profit organization in each of our local communities to donate to. By supporting these organizations, we are helping to promote biodiversity conservation, ensuring that these natural habitats continue to thrive and support a wide range of species.

    Limiting Our Emissions
