To empower people everywhere to create the change they want to see.
Change.org is a global online website that has hosted millions of petitions since it launched in 2007, including dozens of notable cases that have led to significant worldwide change. Of interest, too, is its voluntary 2021 recognition of its staff’s labor union; at the time it was the largest tech company to do so.
Change.org remains the leading player in online petitions, generating revenue from petition promotions and subscription memberships. This revenue has raised some eyebrows - but Change.org has successfully withstood skepticism about its legal status as a business rather than a non-profit. It has demonstrably facilitated speed and scale for the social change platform and has allowed the company to comfortably retain salaried employees.
The company has become the world's largest nonprofit-owned tech platform after it transitioned to 100% nonprofit ownership following donations of equity from its investors that includes Reid Hoffman, Bill Gates, and Richard Branson. However, Change.org has not been immune from the global economic crisis, and in response, it aims to innovate its platform by updating its internal tools and engineering capabilities. Regardless, the company is here for the long run and is used in around 200 countries, with over 70,000 campaigns launched on its platform each month.
