About Us
At Taproot, we believe in what’s possible for nonprofits, volunteers, partners, and communities.
MISSION
Taproot helps mission-driven organizations amplify their impact by mobilizing skilled volunteers to advance resource equity.
Our work builds on over 20 years of experience and the inspiration to think bigger. We collaborate with nonprofit organizations, companies, volunteers, and stakeholders who are doing important mission-driven work. Our partners are courageous thinkers taking action to transform the world.
Taproot connects nonprofits and small businesses with skilled volunteers to help organizations tackle complex challenges and amplify their impact. We partner with individual volunteers and build corporate programs that engage professionals with expertise in marketing, human resources, technology, strategy, and more. Volunteers get to support causes they are passionate about and nonprofits and small businesses gain access to the resources needed to achieve their vision.

Solving the social problems of today requires thoughtful, deliberate action, inviting and listening to voices who have been historically silenced, and creating a place at the table for each of us.
