“Startups Give Back was an absolute pleasure to work with. We talked about what our group was most interested in and the dates we were available and within a few days they had an organization lined up for our group! Our timing changed a bit from when we first spoke and they went above and beyond to make the new date and time work for us. We had a few other volunteer activities that week so working with Startups Give Back made my life so much easier and made getting our office out and volunteering easy and enjoyable! If you want to get your company out into your community but aren’t sure where to start or how to do it, I would highly recommend using Startups Give Back!”

It can be really difficult to find volunteer opportunities for large groups in the Bay Area on specific days and times, but Jeremy and SGB made it so easy for me! I will definitely be reaching out to them the next time we are planning a volunteering event for the team.”

He was able to find something in a short amount of time that accommodated our large group and time frame. We volunteered at the Boys and Girls Club and loved it so much! The kids there are so friendly and welcomed us with open arms. It was nice to be able to walk around to different departments like the gym and their art room to volunteer. Overall, it was a smooth and fun experience. We’ll definitely volunteer again!”
