Personio Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organisation offering financial and strategic support as well as HR advice to forward-thinking organisations via two flagship programs: (1) Impact Portfolio: we fund and support exceptional NGOs working in the fields of Climate Action and Education. We look for outstanding teams with innovative and scalable solutions to tackle the most pressing challenges in their fields and thereby foster innovation for People and Planet. (2) HR Accelerator: Personio Foundation supports HR professionals in the nonprofit and social business sector to tackle their big HR challenges. We offer a free dedicated training hub, knowledge base and community to help build up better people management processes and grow the most valuable asset of any organization – their people. Personio Foundation is based on a commitment made when Personio was created to donate 1% of the company’s equity for good causes. This 1% stake is currently worth $85 million and will continue to grow until an IPO of Personio. An additional $3 million in cash donations from Personio’s founders, investors and the company itself has been made to drive immediate progress through Personio Foundation.
