Giving Back: the Forge & Spark Way

At Forge & Spark, giving back is woven into our agency’s DNA. We’re delighted to share what the Forge & Spark Give Back Program made possible this year!

For every new client partnership and course student, our team donates $50 to a variety of charities aligned with our commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This isn’t just part of our business, it’s how we stay connected to the bigger picture, living our values and doing our part to move the needle on causes that matter.

• Gender equality (SDG 5) – We prioritize learning through client enablement, workshops, and content, as well as donations chosen via our Giving Back program, and our work with clients in the education space.
• Education (SDG 4) – As a growing, women-led team, we create pathways for leadership, mentorship, and fair, flexible work.
• Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8) – We’re committed to fair wages, flexibility, and a culture of care that supports sustainable growth.

This year, our client-powered donations made a difference for four wonderful local organizations: Vancouver Food Bank, Dress for Success Vancouver, the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre, and Mamas for Mamas. By keeping our approach simple we make giving back a regular habit.

Every single client project turns into tangible, local impact. And every team member and partner knows they’re part of something purposeful, not just business as usual. We believe small, consistent efforts build a more generous and joyful community.

Thank you for inviting us to celebrate and share our impact. The 1% Pledge helps us keep the spirit (and habit) of generosity front and centre, today and every day.
