The Nextep Charitable Foundation is a nonprofit organization devoted to empowering our employees to elevate the lives of people in need and enrich the communities in which they live.
Nextep’s people-first commitment extends outside of our workplace too. We not only encourage our employees to serve the organizations they’re passionate about, but we also invite them to do so on company time. In 2019 alone, our employees generously volunteered more than 1,600 hours to empower and enrich the community.
Pledge 1% is a corporate philanthropy movement dedicated to making the community an integral part of every business. This program encourages companies to donate 1% of product, profit, equity, and employee time to improve communities. Nextep is proud to be a part of this movement!
In alignment with the Pledge 1% movement, we donate money to organizations doing amazing work in our community, offer free services to nonprofits, and our employees donate their time with both company and personal hours.
Time
Our people are passionate about bettering the community. They’re eager to volunteer, and we encourage them to do so by providing paid volunteer hours.
Dollars
We’ve committed to donating $100,000 every year to support some amazing organizations and drive a positive impact in our community.
Know-how
We know running a business is challenging, so we offer free services to small nonprofits and take the worry of HR and administrative tasks off their shoulders.
“Nextep’s drive to give back and support the underserved is a core part of our culture from the top down. I am more impressed with our people’s desire to serve others each and every day.”
