About The Upside Foundation:
Many startup founders want to change the world by giving back but they need to focus on growing their business first. So, giving back gets put on the back burner. Through the Upside Foundation, CEOs can make an impact now without taking away from revenue, time or resources.
Upside helps founders give back to the charities of their choice by donating equity instead of cash. Over 200 companies have worked with Upside to build social responsibility into their brand & culture, including: Hopper, Wealthsimple, Borrowell, Wattpad, and Hubba. And, in doing so, they joined a thriving community of like-minded founders from across the country, and collectively are poised to make a huge impact for Canada.
