compass pro bono
@ Philadelphia
In 2013, Compass Pro Bono’s expansion to Greater Philadelphia served as the first opportunity to scale as a national organization. Since then, thousands of Philadelphia professionals have found meaningful work, made enduring community connections, and even honed or developed new 21st century work skills while engaging in our collaborative consulting projects.
We’re proud to provide nonprofits with equitable access to high-quality business strategy consulting and give local business professionals next-minded, socially responsible leadership opportunities that will impact the Greater Philadelphia region for a lifetime.

real stories, real impact
-
“Working with a Compass team on Technology Strategies has been a game changer for our non-profit. We all know to ask questions and listen to people who have expertise in the areas of interest. That’s just what we did. The team had ideas that never dawned on any of us on the staff or Board as to ways to streamline processes to be as efficient as possible.”
-
“The Compass team was so incredibly genuine – they not only were committed to the work, they were truly interested and seemed to be having such fun helping us. They were an incredible bunch of people and each brought a different skill set to the project. It was an incredible experience.”
-
“The Compass program provides me an opportunity to connect with like-minded business professionals in the Philadelphia area, as well as the nonprofits within.”
