Taproot Foundation is a nonprofit organization connecting communities and driving social change. We connect other nonprofits and other social change organizations with skilled volunteers to help them tackle their toughest challenges.
Taproot is creating a world where organizations dedicated to social change have full access to the marketing, strategy, HR, and IT resources they need to be most effective. We pair nonprofit staff with qualified, skilled volunteers for high-impact, high-quality pro bono service in a range of ways, from team-based, long-term projects to one-time, one-on-one consultations.
Our success is powered by the best practices and supportive processes we have honed in over 20 years, working with 19,000+ organizations and over 150,000 skilled volunteers. Since Taproot was founded in 2001, we’ve delivered 1.9 M hours of pro bono service worth over $300 M in value.

Additionally, we offer active support to organizations who desire to implement Lean Six Sigma programs in order to help them become Continuous Improvement driven organizations
We believe that completing a Lean Six Sigma training should be of great benefit to you and your organization, and should be something special. For this reason, we make a considerable effort to offer services and issue certificates that are respected all across the world. As one of the only ISO18404 and ISO13053 accredited Lean Six Sigma service providers, we pride ourselves on exceeding industry standards. In select markets, we have even managed to get our Lean Six Sigma Black Belt curriculum to be officially recognized as a post-graduate degree. By cooperating with universities and colleges across Europe (e.g. Paris, France / London, England / Ghent, Belgium / Rotterdam, The Netherlands) and having our certificate be endorsed by renowned learning institutions, we want to showcase to our students and clients that we deliver the highest possible quality.
