THRIVE | Coworking and its 501(c)(3) nonprofit sister organization, THRIVE | Initiative — collectively known as THRIVE — are setting a new standard for hybrid, flexible work resources. THRIVE provides a purpose-driven, socially engaged environment for freelancers, entrepreneurs and employees of both large and small businesses, combining design-forward style and thoughtful amenities with philanthropy and community involvement.

Founded in 2015, THRIVE collaborates directly with companies and organizations to supply the remote-work solutions they need, where they want them, providing convenient, 24/7/365 office space and a curated workplace culture. Located in vibrant, walkable neighborhoods, THRIVE offers members scheduled events, activities and adventures, while also acting as an economic engine for local businesses by partnering with area retailers, who in turn give members discounts on goods and services. The THRIVE | Initiative app allows users to roundup up their credit or debit card purchases to the nearest dollar amount and donate the difference directly to the charity of their choice. THRIVE leverages the power of enterprise as a force for good, providing inspiration for others to do the same, helping communities to flourish.

A nonprofit 501(c)(3) program, THRIVE | Initiative has been in the works for more than a decade, the brainchild of THRIVE Co-founder Ramon Gonzalez and fellow entrepreneur Chris Smith. It’s a micro-donation platform that rounds up purchases on debit or credit card transactions to the nearest dollar, then donates the spare change to the charity of the user’s choice. Call it conscious commerce.

THRIVE | Initiative brings together the promise of technology, the power of philanthropy, and the connection of community, in a model that can be repeated in every neighborhood where THRIVE | Coworking operates. Creating alliances with local retailers, who in turn will offer Initiative participants discounts on everything from dining to dry cleaning, the program is designed to drive traffic to surrounding businesses. 

THRIVE | Initiative also acts as a potent tool for corporations that can adopt a nonprofit beneficiary and add mission and meaning beyond the bottom line. A Harris-Kumanu survey found only a third of U.S. employees know their company’s purpose. And among those that do, less than a third feel they share it. The survey concluded that lack of collective direction means employees are less engaged at work, and more depressed and anxious.
