Here at Vivisum, we believe in the vital importance of socially focused organizations in our community. Infusing creativity, agility, and intimacy into our local business environment is very dear to us, we believe our work should have meaning and have an impact outside of the office. Our annual Meaningful Work Grant provides pro-bono consulting and financial support for a local social business and to help positively influence our communities.

Every year we invite socially-oriented businesses and nonprofits who positively impact the Triangle area to apply for our Meaningful Work Grant.

What is the Meaningful Work Grant?

The idea is simple. Over the course of 6 months, The Vivisum Team will work closely with a local social enterprise to offer up to ~50 hours of market research consulting. At the end of the engagement, Vivisum will provide a $7,500 monetary grant over 3 years, to be used towards implementing the decisions and insights.

Who is eligible to apply?

Socially-oriented businesses whose primary objective is to increase the general welfare of the local community, with financial returns being of secondary importance. Applicants must meet the following criteria:

For-profit or nonprofit
Operational impact in the Triangle, NC area

We believe that life is about the relationships we form with those around us. Whether those people are our clients, our coworkers, or the community, we feel that the essence of meaningful work is cultivating empathy, trust, and goodwill with those around us.
