At Mission Partners, we believe communication is one of the most powerful tools to advance social change. And communication, as we know well, is more than words. We acknowledge our privilege and advantage as a white, cis-gender woman-owned company and B Corporation™, and believe our highest responsibility is to use our influence and capital to shift and disrupt white dominant norms and false, toxic narratives. In 2020, we set out to deepen the impact of our work through a public commitment to invest $2.5M in Black- and women*-led organizations over five years—two groups that we saw disproportionately impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through a mix of pro bono support, capital investments, nonprofit donations, and our Social Entrepreneur in Residence program, we are humbled to share that we exceeded our goal, with a total of $2.86M of Mission Partners’ resources distributed from June 2020 to December 2025: $2.18M distributed directly to vendors with whom we partner, $650,000 distributed in pro bono resources, and $30,000 distributed as direct donations to nonprofits.
Being small has never stopped us from being mighty. And now is not a time to stop or pull back from our commitment to use business—and communication—as a force for good. So, while these days bring a host of new challenges, they also bring reasons for hope, connection, and community.
We will continue to invest our resources in leaders and organizations that are most impacted by these times, doing all we can, with all we have, to move missions forward.
