Put your business support
where the work is.
Businesses and independent professionals can contribute to Scaled Enablement's community fund — a pool we deploy into mission-aligned nonprofits through a transparent application process. Straightforward for contributors. Meaningful for the organizations we support.
Simple by design.
Make a one-time contribution to Scaled Enablement — a business-to-business payment. For consultants, freelancers, and businesses with a Schedule C or corporate return, this is a straightforward ordinary business expense, the same as any other professional service payment.
Contributions go into SE's community fund. Nonprofits apply through a transparent process and are evaluated on mission alignment, operational leverage, and community impact. SE retains full discretion over allocation.
Funded organizations receive support — operational consulting, direct grants, or capacity-building resources — based on what will move the needle most. We publish updates on how the fund is deployed.
Why this works for your business
A contribution to Scaled Enablement is a payment to a business — not a charitable donation. For consultants, freelancers, and businesses, that means it's typically deductible as an ordinary business expense on your Schedule C or corporate return, the same way you'd deduct professional development, consulting, or community membership fees. Consult your tax advisor to confirm it fits your situation.
Back the mission.
Choose an amount and indicate what matters to you. We'll use your signal as a guide when evaluating nonprofit applications — though final allocation decisions rest with SE.

Discretionary. Transparent. Intentional.
SE retains full discretion over how community fund contributions are deployed. We evaluate nonprofit applications against four criteria — and we publish what we've funded and why.
We prioritize organizations whose work directly addresses operational capacity gaps — the same problems we solve in our paid engagements. Program-heavy nonprofits that lack the infrastructure to scale their programs are our primary focus.
A dollar of operational improvement can unlock significantly more in program impact. We look for organizations where a targeted investment in systems and capacity will multiply — not just sustain — their existing work.
Resources deployed into an organization that isn't ready to use them don't produce outcomes. We evaluate whether leadership is committed to change, not just to receiving support.
Organizations that are embedded in and accountable to their communities build more durable impact than those that operate for communities from a distance. We weight local, community-led organizations accordingly.
No specific nonprofits are promised. The fund is discretionary — SE selects recipients based on applications, direct relationships, and operational judgment. Contributors cannot direct funds to a specific organization. If you want to support a specific nonprofit, go give directly to them.
Apply for community fund support.
