Pledge 1% is an organization dedicated to helping companies donate 1% of their equity, product, time, or profit. The Growth Heroes team strives to help not only those in our local communities but also those across the world. From food banks, to the rainforest, to technology foundations, nonprofits all over have seen an increase in funds to the services they provide thanks to the Growth Heroes contributions. It is our hope that those in need will have better access to the resources they need to make improvements within their daily lives.
The Pledge 1% team is always providing resources and suggestions for how companies like ours can give back to the community. We take full advantage of these resources so that we can maximize our impact for those who need it most.

Through our support of the below organizations and our own corporate policies, we are proud to have the means and opportunities to support others.
