“We very often fail to think as carefully about helping others as we could, mistakenly believing
that applying data and rationality to a charitable endeavor robs the act of virtue.”
-William MacAskill, Doing Good Better
The Belief: Good companies are good citizens. They determine how they are uniquely positioned to serve their community, then they mobilize whatever that is for the benefit of others.
The Problem: Without considering a community’s priorities or needs-assessment data, even well-meaning philanthropists fail to hit their intended target.
The Mission: The Get Comfortable campaign absorbs the complexity of social innovation to make serving simple for others, channeling the generosity of many toward the greatest local needs.
The Win: Businesses can feel confident knowing their corporate giving is directed to our city’s greatest disparities, and the beneficiaries can go further faster.
Our 2021 Get Comfortable Request For Proposals (RFP) opened on October 1st and closed on October 23, 2020. Agency recipients were announced on December 10, 2020, and the 2021 program launches February 10, 2021 at our downtown taproom.
