The Laboratory for Civic Innovation organizes skill-based volunteers, pro bono consultants, and #prosonloan that share a resolve to support others through servant-leadership and collective impact. They also share a mission to drive positive change by activating the social capital of individuals and institutions in their lives working to make the world a better place.
Aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we are seeking stakeholder advocates who have diverse backgrounds, skill sets, and cultural perspectives. Framed in the JEDI mindset of sustainability – through the lens of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion – our values and value behaviors feed innovation and lead to meaningful service experiences.
As the civic action tank of Doing Good Business, the Laboratory for Civic Innovation operates tax-exempt activities through a fiscal agent relationship with Ubuntu Institute of Learning. Configured as a public benefit corporation, our programs use the service enterprise business model to operate as lean startup studio for purpose-driven, short- and long-term initiatives. We leverage strategic shared services, affiliate channel partnerships and human capacity at scale to address the magnitude of the challenges we face.
