“Thanks to PIE, we've learned how to make our operating expenses work in favor of the community. Without adding costs or complicating our workflow, we've been able to better support local nonprofits. PIE's procurement model is a revelation, and I encourage every leader with a social mission to explore it. The experience of leveraging PIE's network for the benefit of our chosen local charity has been incredibly rewarding.
Will Blount, Co-Founder of Ruffwear & Embark
Here are the simple and proven steps you’ll take to transform boring expenses into exciting donations:
Step 1: Qualify
Most businesses have at least one large expense bucket that can be purpose-powered with the proven PIE model.
PIE creates a new recurring donation from this expense to a cause your team loves without increases in cost, complexity, or major distractions.
“Until now, my department has never had the opportunity to directly generate impact metrics. PIE and their Microsoft team were knowledgeable, professional, diligent, and a pleasure to work with. Our IT team is delighted to have found a simple yet powerful way to optimize our budget and actively participate in the company’s mission to use our businesses as a force for good. A very rewarding engagement!”
Igor Zaika, CTO, Sensiba
Step 2: The PIE Review
Once you have identified a qualified service, PIE will perform a free, no-obligation review of that service.
This step only takes 1-2 hours of finance and IT time. An NDA is optional during this step.
“PIE purpose-powered our Microsoft 365 for our team in just 30 minutes. We’ve been using it for months with zero issues. The process was painless. Our team is delighted to know that every email or Teams Meeting is helping support our nonprofit partners. I encourage purpose-led companies to check out PIE’s Purpose-Powered Microsoft offerings.
Matt Palmer, Analyst and Systems Admin, Puffin Drinkwear
Step 3: The Proposal
PIE will send you a proposal that summarizes any potential cost savings and an estimated recurring donation that PIE will make to your chosen nonprofit partner.
The proposal will outline the estimated time investment needed, the implementation fee, and the onboarding resources needed.
“PIE helped us build Systematic Giving into the foundation of our operations. PIE helped us purpose-power our phones, webinar, email, and Quickbooks services without downtime or any major disruptions. The ROI of this engagement for our nonprofit community partners, our team, and our brand is remarkable.”
Kelley Pecoraro, Director of Finance and Administration at RealWealth.
Step 4: Onboard
Onboarding is always done with the requirements of zero downtime and minimal disruptions front and center.
Generally, the time needed to onboard can be measured in minutes or hours, rather than days or weeks.
PIE always does the heavy lifting.

“I was part of the team that helped execute PIE’s Purpose-Powered Google Workspace and Go2Webinar services. These are two mission-critical services for us.

This is a fantastic offering and a delightful team to work with.”

We Make it Easy as PIE to Create More Impact
Don’t take our word for it. Here are a few short videos from impact leaders sharing their experiences of becoming members of the PIE nonprofit funding movement.
Our Mission
At PIE, our mission is to liberate available capital from our global economy by transforming essential operating expenses into recurring donations that help solve our most challenging social and environmental issues. By redirecting 50% of our recurring revenue received through our purpose-driven services brokerage, we provide nonprofit teams with a passive, non-distracting, and non-dilutive source of capital to increase their efficiency in making the impact they desire.
Although PIE members can choose any social impact organization their team desires, we encourage our members to support social impact causes in the areas of poverty, hunger, education, and gender equality. For our environmental impact vision, and encourage our members to support high-impact, cost-effective teams tackling the climate crisis in the areas of clean energy, deforestation, and nature-based innovations.
The PIE Theory of Change
The Challenge
Business leaders are expected to help solve social and environmental issues while still driving profitability and growth.
Problem: Donations from Profits are Insufficient
In most funding models, donations are only available after a company pays operational expenses. This small slice of profits limits a company’s ability to say “yes” to great causes worthy of support.
53% of nonprofits are underfunded*
How much additional impact is possible with increased funding?
