Justworks.org

A world in which starting, running, and joining a business is accessible for all.

Entrepreneurship is the most powerful engine for opportunity, yet access to it is not evenly distributed. Barriers like access to capital, networks, education, and support make it harder for many small business owners to succeed. Justworks.org is how we help make entrepreneurship more accessible.

How do we do it?

Justworks.org brings together a suite of initiatives designed to support the people and organizations creating the conditions for others to succeed, strengthening organizations and networks working to reduce barriers to entrepreneurship.

  • Pledge 1%We live out our foundational commitment to giving back by pledging 1% of equity and profits to expand access to entrepreneurship through strategic funding and long-term investment.
  • Just ThriveWe empower small businesses facing extraordinary challenges through our product access program, removing operational barriers and accelerating their journey to sustainable growth.
  • Spring ForwardWe award grants to nonprofit customers doing extraordinary work across education, healthcare, food security, and more.
  • Capacity-Building GrantsWe invest in the operational strength of nonprofits that are working to eliminate barriers to entrepreneurship, such as access to capital, knowledge, and networks.
  • Service for ImpactWe empower Justworkers to volunteer their time and skills with mission-aligned nonprofits, reinforcing our culture of care and contributing to long-term ecosystem impact.
