Raised By Us unlocks the collective power of the workplace to do good.
We are dedicated to amplifying the social impact of purpose-driven companies. Every workplace is full of more than just workers. It is full of dreamers. Change makers. Millions of people overflowing with the desire for their job to be more than just work.
Companies can’t let that energy go to waste. Whether through giving, getting out in the community, or amplifying voices, Raised By Us gives companies the tools they need to harness their employees’ energy and embrace their own social responsibility.
When workplaces do good, the ripple effects elevate every part of a business, from employee recruitment to productivity and retention. Successful companies know their bottom line depends on more than just profit. That’s why we help companies put good to work.
Our values
We look for creative ways for teams to have fun while doing good. We give people exciting new ways to experience the warm glow of giving back to high need causes.
We are working towards a more just and equitable world. We commit to practices of anti-racism, and to reflecting on our own biases, policies, and systems – as well as those of our partners.
We maintain an unmatched ability to adapt as an organization. Operating in a space that is ever-changing and unpredictable, we stay comfortable with ambiguity to pivot quickly.
We do this work to elevate people and drive them to action. We achieve that by working hand-in-hand with our clients, nonprofits, and partners – not in siloes.
We believe everyone can create meaningful impact. We want people to be as generous as they can be, and encourage optimism about the power of their individual and collective impact.

Frequently asked questions
Our most common approach is an annual partnership where we help develop a company giving strategy and an employee-facing and employee-driven program. Sometimes partners have a specific problem they are trying to solve and/or want help building out a single event. That’s okay, too. We meet you where you are at!
Absolutely! We can help plan and execute a day, week, or month of service, including identifying opportunities, sourcing nonprofit partners, and managing all aspects of the project plan. We always recommend days of service as part of a broader give-back strategy and can work with you to develop that, too.
Each partnership is unique so we don’t have cookie cutter pricing. Our fees are based on things like company size, scope of work, and complexity of the project. We are a nonprofit so we never let money get in the way of impact.
We sure do. These days most of our companies are international with a distributed workforce. Over 20,000 employees across four continents currently have access to Raised By Us programs.
Nope! We are a service provider that works alongside some of the most innovative tech providers out there. Our goal is to connect our partners with resources that best meet their needs and as a result we have relationships with a variety of workplace technology companies to help you build your toolbox.
Our typical points of contact are Chief People Officers and Heads of DEI. Sometimes communications and marketing departments co-lead this work as well.
Every partner is different. Some already have robust programs in place and are looking to take theirs to the next level. Others are starting from scratch. To start, all you need is an executive sponsor for the program (someone who owns the work) and we will walk you through the rest!
Give us a shout. We are always looking to bring on companies who understand the importance and value of supporting their communities.
Sure thing. While we got our start working in tech and consider ourselves experts in the high-growth space, we successfully work with companies across all industries. In fact, our staff have extensive experience running corporate partnership programs with large financial institutions and professional services companies.
