Brighter Future Fund
How we invest in        
        a brighter future
Our Net Positive

Whiteboard’s Brighter Future Fund invests resources into net-positive strategies that give back more than they take from society and the environment.

Whiteboard was birthed out of our passion to serve courageous people and bold ideas.

As a bootstrapped company that works alongside dozens of social ventures; we understand the tension of bringing bold ideas to life amidst budget constraints—that’s why we started the Brighter Future Fund.

The Brighter Future Fund builds stronger communities by investing resources and creating platforms at the intersection of social entrepreneurship, technology, and education.

It’s not passive charity—it’s our strategic approach to leveraging our talents and profits on purpose. We believe it’s the best way we can give back.

We sponsor clients with smaller or non-existent budgets.

Launching in 2023,  Whiteboard will lead one pro-bono project a year for a local nonprofit in one of our office locations; specifically geared for the underserved and underrepresented. Especially peoples and communities of color.

In the cities we call home, Whiteboard is committed to doing a pro-bono project for one deserving non-profit each year through our “For the Public Good” initiative. The selected organization gets the full Whiteboard experience—all the strategic and creative magic of our team—for absolutely no charge.
