Our Nonprofit Commitment
When you hire Bear Paw for strategy consulting, website development, logo and branding or any other service – we use a portion of our profit to reinvest in a non-profit that needs our help.
WHAT’S THIS ONE:ONE THING ABOUT?
Bear Paw Creative balances paying client jobs with in-kind or pro bono work. At the end of each year, we want to know that at least 40% of the work we’ve done is in support of nonprofits in our community. Because it is important to us that everyone we welcome into the family receives the best parts of us, we balance workloads accordingly. ONE:ONE does not mean a website for a website or a brand suite for a brand suite. Instead it means that we seek to meet our nonprofits where they are and offer only what will be helpful in propelling them toward their goals. This creates a reciprocal community investment for every paying job we take.
YOU CAN GET INVOLVED TOO!
As part of getting to know you, we’ll get to know the causes that you care about. If they align with our core philosophies we’ll reach out to see how we can help. This program is great for companies of any size that have a give-back component or a corporate responsibility plan already in place. Our ONE:ONE approach allows you to double down on your efforts, satisfying business needs and cause commitments with your trusted Bear Paw family.
If you don’t know who you’d like to help, no problem! We’ve identified lots of good people who need our support!
Bear Paw is a Proud Triple Bottom Line Company
In addition to our profits, we measure our success based on the fulfillment of our people as well as our contribution to the community and the environment.
We adhere to this philosophy throughout the year by carefully considering the impact of each and every decision on all of our bottom line metrics.
PEOPLE
What we do for our clients and our employees has a direct result on productivity and results. Stewardship of our people drives our business on a day-to-day basis.
PLANET
We monitor the resources we use and strive to support sustainability through internal accountability. We’re always looking for partners who hold true to this idea so we can help spread the ideas and practices that will be integral to promoting a clean and healthy world for generations to come.
PROFITS
If we take care of our people and our planet, we give ourselves the opportunity to expand our profit potential and take care of our family and friends.
