Our Story

Our Mission

We harness business as a force for good and partner with impact organizations to lighten their load and further their purpose. We create remote, impact employment where our team members and clients are valued and supported in their efforts to advance us all toward a more sustainable world.

Our Values

We demonstrate our beliefs through our actions. We walk the talk and practice transparency.

We are helpful and seek to leave things better than we found them.

We will strive to see positive intentions in one another. It’s important to treat each other fairly and with compassion.

We believe in a community mindset and give our time and resources to create beneficial impacts for our clients, our employees, and the earth.

We are curious, proactive, and adaptable. We understand that challenges happen and rely on our collective experience to explore solutions.

July 2016 The original business concept is born.

April 2017 HigherRing is officially founded by Michelle Hirons and Susan Hopkinson as a Public Benefit Corporation.

Along the way we’ve grown and changed so much. We’re proud of all we’ve learned (sometimes the hard way) and are happy to celebrate our wins.

We’d love to include you in our journey. Whether you're a solopreneur or a full-scale operation, our expertise and motivated team are a great way to invest in your success.
