Social Impact
Why Social Impact
At Stax, measurable social impact is woven into our every day. We are thought leaders and generate independent research and offer our own unique insights on a wide-variety of topics, industries, and concerns. We take on nonprofit clients in a unique manner and support our communities on a local level. We also see tremendous opportunities to solve critical social issues through a for-profit, double-bottom line model. At the end of the day, we prefer sustainable impact to short-term results.
Meaningful Insights
We generate independent research and insights on global subjects of interest, with an emphasis on identifying root causes of troubling situations and how best to drive better outcomes with lower cost.
DIRECT FINANCIAL SUPPORT AND PRO-BONO WORK
We provide money and services to support non-profit organizations about which we are passionate.
