Programs and results
What we aim to solve
It is incredibly difficult for students to gain access to resources for launching nonprofits or events, given their young age and the fact they they are often full-time students. Yet, many students have powerful ideas that could create massive impacts on their communities or even broader audiences.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We are aiming to help students launch nonprofits and events so they can themselves gain early experiences in social entrepreneurship, as well as create social impacts in their communities.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We build technology that allow us to offer traditional nonprofit services, such as fiscal sponsorship and org administration services, at scale to students to ensure they can focus on their impact instead of spending countless hours on legal and financial paperwork. We also partner with top Silicon Valley tech companies to bundle free resources for student organizations that are normally worth tens of thousands of dollars.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have built our tech to be extremely scalable and can support hundreds of student ventures. We are always actively accepting new ventures.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
So far, we have helped over 1000 students launch 80+ ventures. Across all of our student-run nonprofits and not-for-profit events, over 300 donors have contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars in making student organizations a reality. We find that our students' projects collectively impact over 75,000 people annually, largely focusing on increasing representation for minorities in all industries.

- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
- We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
- We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
