Non-Profit Organization’s support to society & sustainability is enormous. You can be in any of following categories to be The Sustainability Ambassador in a charity category:
- Registered Charity
- Registered Not-for-profit
- Registered Social Enterprise
- Registered Foundation
- Registered Trust
We respect all religions; and we have no objections against any religion. However, this platform is not for promoting or supporting any religion. So we may not be the right fit for religious organizations.
The Sustainability Ambassador membership/subscription is totally FREE for charities & social enterprises.
For other organizations, the annual ambassadorship fees range from £9 to £999. The annual ambassadorship/membership fees depend on the size of the organization.
We too feel extremely stressful to reject the not-for-profit application, however it is painful to mention that current rejection ratio in the not-for-profit category is more than 50%
We offer free ambassadorship & associated benefits, however we do not wish to be fast or fake when it comes to issuing a certificate to a not-for-profit.
For a new organisation, it will take more than 1 year from the date of application, as we will periodically monitor your authenticity & impact on the society & environment.
For others, the process will take between 1 month to 6 months. In some cases, it may take even longer, if we feel suspicious during the review process.

When it comes to social sector, the Sustainability Ambassador initiative believes in supporting one another.
This is a genuine initiative for genuine participants, so not a money making scheme. For 2021, 2022 & 2023, there has been no subscription/membership fees for professionals, students, children, social enterprises, charities & government organizations.
Whilst we hope to keep this free forever; however this should not be interpreted as our commitment. We hope that you understand that it is very difficult to predict and commit to future scenarios that are uncertain, complex, dynamic and volatile.
Currently, we generate revenue from donations, businesses, media & educational institutes. This helps us support FREE Sustainability Ambassadorships to social sector.
An application with the Sustainability Ambassador reference is approved after a review of 1 SPSC Ambassador.
Other Sustainability Ambassador applications need 3 Sustainability Ambassador’s review and approval.
The Sustainability Ambassadorship does not guarantee any financial or non-financial rewards, benefits and/or compensation.
