Toast is a cloud-based, all-in-one digital technology platform purpose-built for the entire restaurant community. In 2019, Toast launched its social impact arm, Toast.org, with the purpose of enriching the food experience for all and creating a healthier, more sustainable, and equitable world.
They joined the Pledge 1% movement in 2021 to further activate their philanthropy, people, and product towards this mission. This resulted in the Changemaker Product Suite, which is available to Toast customers for free with the goal of empowering restaurants to be local community hubs. Through this program, Toast has partnered with local organizations on accelerating the development and implementation of scalable food waste solutions, among other things.
In addition, Toast created an innovative three-month rotational program for employees from the R&D team to join the social impact team and see how Toast’s product is impacting customers. This is helping them get internal buy-in all while leveraging the best of their team talent and time to have an impact.
