Social Impact

Moving forward through giving back

During this era of heightened social injustice, climate crisis, and global upheaval, we are compelled to act. We are actively expanding our Social Impact Program. In light of recent events, we have refocused our efforts to accelerate change and positively impact the organizations that we are passionate about. 

Backing what we believe in
‍

‍We support the causes that are important to our employees, our customers, and our communities. While this isn’t an exhaustive list, here are some organizations we are passionate about and we think you should be too.

Gender equality & reproductive rights/freedom

• Equality Now
• Planned Parenthood
• West Alabama Women’s Center

Racial equity, anti-racism, and equal rights for all

• NAACP
• Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)

‍LGBTQ rights

‍Community safety & well-being, including the prevention of gun violence

“In a time of rapidly declining rights and politically-charged division, it falls on all of us to fight for change and support those most in need.”

Agencies for Reproductive Rights

As a part of our ongoing mission to be an agency of change, Gray Dot Company has joined as a charter member of Agencies for Reproductive Rights — a coalition of 35+ agencies that believe in a person’s right to choose.

Member agencies have pledged to support reproductive rights by covering the cost of travel for team members who may need to go out of state for abortion healthcare.

Pledge 1%

By using the guiding principles of Pledge 1%, Gray Dot Company is committing both time and financial resources by pledging:

• 100% of Referral fees
• 1% of profits 
  ‍We’ll donate 1% of revenue on a quarterly basis
• 1% of equity
  We’ll donate 1% of our company’s proceeds in the event of a sale or acquisition of the company

Giving back: Women in Tech SEO

As proud members of the Women in Tech SEO community, we are committed to giving back to the communities that consistently support us. That’s why we have committed to donating $200 for every closed deal we earn from WTSEO referrals or relationships.
