Pledge 1% Boston
Pledge 1% Boston is the regional initiative of the global Pledge 1% movement, which catalyzes startups and other innovation economy players to make supporting their communities integral to what they do. By pledging a small portion of their future success today, companies can have an enormous impact.
Individuals and companies may pledge 1% equity of their company for the benefit of Greater Boston—or anywhere in the country or the world. If you are an entrepreneur, founder, investor or general supporter of connecting innovation economy stakeholders with local change, learn more and join us!
Globally, over 6,000 companies in over 150 countries have already pledged 1% to nonprofit causes and programs, and dozens have made the pledge locally in Boston.
Pledge 1% Boston is an initiative powered by both the Boston Foundation and TUGG.
