Corporate philanthropy isn’t about “gifting” donations to organizations. Private sector companies often profess that they’re “changing the world,” and “saving lives,” but the reality is, the private sector and corporations weren’t designed to change the world. We are designed to make a profit. 

Nonprofits and public organizations were made to make big impact in the world, but the private sector has stripped a lot of power from these entities, promising that they can do a better job at making the world better. 

I don’t believe it. I believe companies should give up, not give back. Grow Wild Creative gives 5% of our gross profits to Austin Bat Cave. It is a part of our philosophy that philanthropy should be baked into our operating expenses, not gifted with our excess profits. 

That’s why 5% of Grow Wild Creative’s gross profits go directly to Austin Bat Cave’s programs and general operating expenses. When you work with us, you’ll know that you’re also contributing to a powerful organization bringing creative writing to kids.
