I sometimes get the question, “Why do you have a social mission?”
To which I will respond, “I can’t wait for the day to come when I get to ask you why you don’t.”
At CommonBond, our core social mission is simple: For every fully funded degree on the CommonBond platform, we fund the education of a student in need for a full year. We’ve partnered up with Pencils of Promise to make this a reality in over 200 schools in Nicaragua, Guatemala, Ghana, and Laos. We call this our “Social Promise” – it is core to who we are and why we do what we do.
