Business for a Cause!
When Businesses Unite, Communities Win!
As leaders in the business community, our reach extends far beyond the open hand of a nonprofit organization.
Through innovation, operational strategy, and technology, we can amplify their impact, extend their voice, and strengthen their mission.
The organizations we support are driven by passionate, hardworking teams who change lives every day. What they often lack is not purpose, but platform.
Business for a Cause exists to close that gap.
The Mission
Founded by Tom Leatherberry, Business for a Cause exists to unite business leadership and nonprofit impact through visibility, connection, and shared expertise.
Our mission is to create a platform where mission-driven organizations are spotlighted before an engaged audience of business professionals — while simultaneously equipping nonprofits with access to the services, technology, and strategic partnerships they need to operate and grow effectively.
We are built on four core pillars:
- Nonprofit Visibility & Amplification – Amplify their mission before a concentrated network of business leaders.
- Business-to-Nonprofit Expertise Exchange – Create intentional opportunities for businesses to present relevant services, technology, and strategic solutions directly to nonprofit leaders.
- Foster Authentic Engagement – Foster an environment where business leaders can engage meaningfully as strategic partners who contribute innovation, influence, and expertise to strengthen the community, in a relaxed, come-as-you-are environment that encourages meaningful relationships.
- Lead With Purpose – Inspire business leaders to move beyond transactions and toward transformation – engaging not only as supporters, but as partners in building stronger communities.
When businesses share more than resources — when they share expertise, innovation, and influence — communities thrive.
What Business for a Cause Means.
Business for a Cause is our commitment to:
Promote nonprofit organizations through our business network
Provide strategic and operational insight where needed
Increase community awareness through technology and marketing
Encourage other business leaders to engage and participate
We invite our clients, partners, and fellow business leaders to join us.
This is not charity.
This is leadership.
Why We Do This.
At Leatherberry Associates, we believe operational excellence is a force multiplier.
When mission-driven organizations operate with clarity, structure, and sustainable systems, their impact expands exponentially.
Our role is simple:
- Strengthen operations
- Improve visibility
- Leverage business relationships
- Apply technology strategically
- Amplify community impact
Because when businesses lend more than dollars — when they lend expertise — communities win.
