Doing Good Work

C5 + NONPROFIT PARTNERS COLUMN FIVE 2

Our work is more than a job; it’s a reflection of who we are and what we want to put out into the world.

With our collective skills, we have the unique opportunity to tell meaningful stories that connect with audiences and move them to action. It’s a capability we are fortunate to have, and we feel compelled to do as much good with it as we can. That’s why we love to work with nonprofit partners who share our values.

Our Five Columns values guide everything we do, from the projects we work on to the way we work with each other.

1) DO GOOD WORK

2) VALUE OUR PARTNERS

3) BE GOOD TO EACH OTHER

4) BE HUMBLE

5) EXPERIMENT OFTEN

We believe in doing good work in every way, creating content that is beautiful and contributes to the world. Through our nonprofit partnerships, we get to do both. And because these are special relationships, we treat them differently than our regular partnerships.

Nonprofit DiscountsWe know that running a nonprofit is a unique challenge. Although there is plenty of dedication, there isn’t always a large budget. To help this, we offer discounted rates for our services. We want your organization get the best work—and the most bang for your buck.

Pro-Bono WorkGiving back is in our company DNA. Each quarter, we choose a project to work on for free, donating our time and services to a cause we believe in. This brings our team together and empowers us to use our skills to practice what we preach. We love getting to flex our creative muscles, collaborate, and share our passion with amazing partners.

We have been lucky to work with fantastic nonprofit partners across a variety of industries. Each cause is unique, and we take great care to tailor our approach to make sure our work aligns with your goals.
