Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coworking and social enterprise coexist synergistically. Having a location – an address or simply a place to work – is a powerful legitimizer for nonprofits or fledgling social enterprises. Placing these within a local coworking space – already deeply tied to both a local community and a professional one – helps to extend the impact of both the workers and the cause.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
  • This is coworking in the context of social good. Having a space can be a great legitimizer to nonprofit organizations working for the good of their community<\/li>
  • This also ties social enterprises to the specific local communities they\u2019re working for, and also manages to connect it with the larger professional community that shares the space<\/li>
  • In essence, this is one direction work tourism or coworking could go.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Excerpts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    • AllGoodWork has emerged as a platform for space operators to support local nonprofits by providing free work space<\/li>
    • Operators donate workstations or seats to us. It may be seats in a coworking space, or a dedicated desk or an office, depending on the space.<\/li>
    • We work with nonprofits and for-profit social enterprises<\/li>
    • We strongly encourage organizations to pay $50 per seat, which is about a tenth of what a coworking space goes for in New York City.<\/li>
    • if you give something away for free, everyone wants it, even if they don\u2019t need it.<\/li>
    • The coworking space industry, the serviced office industry, has really boomed, in large part, because of its focus on people and not real estate<\/li>
    • That\u2019s the intersection of serviced office industry and what\u2019s happening in general with more focus on local and community-based organizations.<\/li>
    • We have about 75 seats in New York and about 50 in Denver.<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
