Nearly every year, we look back at how we at Mangrove spent our time and whether our day-to-day actions as a team matched our intentions of using our business as a force for good in the world. That reflection is partly what this report is about — an account of how our company performed as an agent for social and environmental good.
We're a small, mighty and distributed team spread across 10 cities, 6 countries, and 3 continents, designing and building websites and digital solutions for organizations that have outsized positive impact in the world: foundations and nonprofits, community banks, journalists, and mission-driven businesses. A meaningful part of our work this year centered on helping foundations build real capacity through technology — creating sustainable digital infrastructure that makes programs easier to find, resources easier to use, and ideas easier to communicate. The work we do is both highly technical and beautifully creative and what ties it together is trust. Clients trust us to build a digital strategy around their mission and to advance their important work.
As a Certified B Corp and Public Benefit Corporation, we've built accountability around the things that matter most to us as a company: team diversity, community investment, and access to durable design and development. It's how we live our work. In 2025, 97% of our business came from purpose-driven or woman- and minority-owned organizations, and over 80% of our team identifies as female or non-binary. We also give back as often and as generously as we can.
The year 2025 was not easy for so many people we know and love. Political headwinds and economic pressures visited our doorsteps and we often found it hard to keep going. But we believe, now more than ever, that charitable organizations and impact-driven businesses need powerful and advanced digital tools and communications in order to thrive. This report is our account of that work — and our commitment to keep on keeping on.
