About Bonterra

Social good software with – and for – a purpose.

At Bonterra, we stand “for the greatest good.” It’s more than our tagline: It’s our commitment to how we innovate, how we operate, and the impact you can expect as a customer or partner.


We power the people who achieve the impact

With our purpose-built software for social good organizations, you can spend less time managing details and more time transforming your community — and the world.

Our vision

We’re innovating with a higher purpose: to increase giving from 2.5% of the US GDP — a number that’s stayed flat for over 50 years — to 3% by 2033.

Our philosophy

For every dollar we make, we strive to change a life. A billion dollars means a billion lives changed. That’s the heart of our business model.

Our technology

We build enterprise-grade software — supported by coaching and expertise — to power trillions of dollars in new impact. No matter how big your mission scales, Bonterra scales with you.

At Bonterra, we’re better together

How can we do the greatest good?

We believe in a “better together” approach to impacting our society and our business. That starts with creating the largest community of givers, volunteers, and nonprofits in the world. To do that, we build, acquire, and integrate the industry’s leading social good solutions.

We’re proud to bring together the strong legacy of products like Network for Good, Every Action, Cybergrants, WeSpire, DonorDrive, and Social Solutions — companies that have a long history of creating a positive impact on the world.

THE BONTERRA STORY

Our founding vision

Bonterra was founded in 2021, inspired by Sir Ronald Cohen’s world-changing approach to business. As the father of social investing and a key visionary in our creation, Sir Cohen believes that companies can do even better by “doing good” — actively creating a positive impact on the world. It’s worked: In just a few years, we’ve become the second-largest social good software company in the world.

Set our sights

Our vision is to increase giving from 2.5% of US GDP to 3% by 2033 — a number that hasn’t changed significantly in the last 50 years. It’s an incredibly ambitious goal, and we’re committed to meeting it by using our technology, innovation, and leadership to increase trust in the entire social good ecosystem.

How we’ll get there

That means inspiring every able American to give or volunteer, not just the wealthiest. It means enabling everyone to use their voices to amplify the causes they believe in. It means increasing the outcome of every dollar and getting more from every volunteer hour.

Impact powered by technology

Our vision doesn’t stop there, and neither does our technology. Corporations can give more, grant more, and match more — with the same rigorous measurement and accountability they use to run their businesses. Foundations will know where to channel their money, and when, to achieve the greatest impact against their missions.

Impact Investing

In the words of Sir Ronald Cohen: “As (we) show that (we) can deliver a desirable combination of impact and financial return . . . impact investment will become more than a moral choice. It will become a smart business decision. In short, doing good can be excellent business.”
