One Website. One Life Changed. One Ripple That Keeps Growing.
Each year, we choose one purpose-driven entrepreneur to receive a full website and branding package: completely free. It’s our way of turning what we do best into something that matters most.
A Letter From The Founder:
I started this business out of survival. All I had was a computer, and with it, I built an engine that carried me forward every time life tried to knock me down. That same engine now fuels a studio that helps others rise, rebuild, and grow through design.
This grant is my way of paying that forward. It’s for someone who’s been through it, who’s had rough starts and unfair setbacks, but still hasn’t quit. Someone with little to no overhead, whose work can make an impact if given a real platform.
We’ll help them build the foundation: a brand, a website, and a system that earns while they sleep. A bridge from surviving to thriving; one that keeps creating ripples long after launch.
THE IMPACT GRANT
WHY IT EXISTS:
Too many good people are stuck because they can’t afford to look legitimate online. They have the skill, the heart, and the drive, but not the setup. We’ve seen it firsthand — a single website can become the turning point for an entire future. We believe in purposeful marketing: honest, transparent, and built to connect the right people with what they’re searching for. No hidden fees. No tricks. Just truth, design, and momentum.
WHO IT’S FOR:
This grant supports people who:
• Run or are starting a service-based business with little to no overhead.
• Have faced setbacks but keep showing up.
• Are ready to grow their income and impact through visibility.
• Have work that can create real ripples, helping others, healing, teaching, or inspiring change.
WHAT’S INCLUDED:
A full four-month build led by our studio team:
• Branding & Logo Design (or refresh)
• Custom Website with SEO and mobile optimization (or re-design)
• Online Systems Setup (service booking, payments, digital offerings, Zoom integration)
• Basic Bookkeeping & Business Foundations support
• One-Year Check-In to showcase their growth and the ripple they’ve created
(Valued at over $15,000)
