Hearthside Foundation
Our non-profit arm dedicated to ensuring universal access to communication tools and building communities of belonging.

Our Programs
The Elder Program
Our flagship initiative that connects community members who want to support others (Elders) with those who need access to premium tools. Every Elder subscription sponsors a full premium membership for someone in need.
Learn More About the Elder ProgramCommunity Outreach
We partner with organizations, schools, and community groups to provide access to our tools and training for underserved populations. Our goal is to reach those who would benefit most from better communication resources.
Research & Development
The Foundation supports ongoing research into communication differences, neurodiversity, and effective strategies for building understanding. This research directly informs the development of our tools and programs.
Purpose Over Profit
The Foundation is funded through the Elder Program and ensures that Hearthside Works' financial success directly supports our social mission. This model aligns commerce with compassion, creating a sustainable path to universal access.
Our Commitment: For every Elder subscription, we sponsor one full premium membership for someone in need. This 1:1 model ensures that growth in our paying user base directly translates to expanded access for those who need support.
