Pledge 1% invites all entrepreneurs and their companies to commit important resources (product, time, and resources) to support integrating philanthropy into their business from an early stage.
“The business of business is improving the state of the world.”– Marc Benioff, Chairman & CEO, Salesforce
As SxBlue is a registered Salesforce-partner, we are touched by the Pledge 1% movement. As a startup we believe that helping non-profits is essential for our business. We already offer pro-bono advise and actual services to Kenniscentrum Filantropie Foundation (KCF).
In early 2018, our colleague Kevin Leunissen approached Norbert van Berckel who was struggling with the implementation of Salesforce and Pardot for his foundation. KCF runs a platform of over 30,000 charities and major donating foundations. KCF strives to connect those parties in order to grow the efficiency of the philanthropic market in the Netherlands. As a result, less money is waisted on administrative processes. KCF offers help in acquiring the ANBI-status for charities and giving them sufficient fiscal advantages. With Geefwijzer.nl, they offer potential donors easy access to charities. With onlinefondsenboek.nl, they open up the vast area of major donating foundations.
Kevin, Wouter and Henk helped Norbert and his volunteers implement and develop the Salesforce NPSP solution. For a better understanding of the market KCF is in, Kevin sat alongside the volunteers and helped calling charities. This gives SxBlue employees the opportunity to grow their personal development on a real life production system. A real WIN-WIN situation.
