Nonprofit Executive Becomes Independent Business Owner: A Socially Responsible Move

Nationally recognized nonprofit leader in social and economic justice, Thia Hamilton was quoted as saying "After 30 years of nonprofit leadership in working with and on behalf of the socially and economically disadvantaged, I have recently stepped out to launch my own business.” Social responsibility is critical to Hamilton, so when asked about making the shift from the nonprofit realm to an independent profit-based business, she explained it this way: “My personal mission is to continue supporting social justice causes in which I believe, by becoming the philanthropist I was always seeking to cultivate in my executive and fundraising roles.

“If I want to donate serious money to good causes, I first need to make serious money. I couldn’t do that in the nonprofit world. It is important to my values, however, that I proceed in a way that is socially mindful and responsible. My new business is allowing me to achieve all these things and I couldn’t be happier!”

When CCPRO Co-Founders Jay Kubassek and Aaron Parkinson were asked for their opinion on Dr. Hamilton they answered:
"We are thrilled about Thia’s decision to join us. She brings a unique, high-energy approach to our community. Thia has been an asset to every other member from the first day she arrived. She is not only smart and creative; she really cares about making a difference in the world.”
