August 24, 2020

A New Way For Business A New Way for Business 103 Social Mission-focused Small Enterprises Business Is Resilient and Responsive Social enterprises are special, mission-driven businesses committed to eliminating the social and economic divide that the COVID pandemic and Black Lives Matter have brought into sharper focus in 2020. For them, social impact is a non-negotiable part of their business that does not ebb when society’s attention wanes. In early 2020 we launched a series of short videos of stories to make their specialness real: www.socialventurescbus.com/ easytounderstand.

This year our COO Molly Tafrate and intern Wendy Phillips have put together a report that celebrates the resiliency and dispatch of social enterprises as the COVID-19 pandemic threw all plans out the window. For most, 2020 has become a year to adapt their business and mission to the sudden changes of a shelter-in-place economy, strive to Evolving hang on financially, and plan for a future that is yet to emerge.

One of the miracles of social enterprise is the way it allows each of us to be impact-makers. On page 10 we Transforming show you how buying a face mask, a candle, coffee, snacks, dog treats, and hot sauce can alleviate hunger, provide support to survivors of trafficking, and maintain employment for individuals facing barriers to traditional employment. Coming Make 2020 the year we all start Buying Social. Together

When the COVID pandemic broke out, the organization knew it had the means to make a difference yet again. Using the HireLevel Promotions resources they already had in place with Aunt Flow, the sister company Work Flow was born in early March. HireLevel Promotions is a distributor of office supplies, office furniture, janitorial supplies, printing, promotional products, marketing, brochures, direct mailing services, and many other items. The company creates jobs for urban youth ages 16-21, Work Flow manufactures and distributes locally sourced, FDA approved masks, hand sanitizers, disinfectant wipes, and PPE reducing economic poverty in the Franklinton area of Columbus. HireLevel invests in preparing young adults to become kits to schools, businesses, organizations, and restaurants. Since its launch the organization has sold over eight million masks productive citizens with careers in promotional products, warehousing, supply inventory, logistics, delivery, and client and millions more wipes, sanitizers, and gowns. Currently Work Flow’s sales are up to 2 million masks a week. In hard times like management services. these, it’s enterprises like Aunt Flow that have stepped up to the challenge to transform and rework their businesses to further help communities and put health first. When the Coronavirus came to Columbus, HireLevel knew that they were in a unique position to transform its current business model to better suit the new need for PPE. Using the warehousing and logistics service they already provided, HireLevel switched gears and started distributing PPE to businesses in Central Ohio. The company’s model focuses on teaching youth the importance of compassion and responsibility. What better way to put those ideas into action than by filling the gap where they were needed.

By providing and distributing PPE such as face shields, masks, gowns, sanitizers, and even thermometers, HireLevel has impacted the lives of people all over Central Ohio. Social enterprises like HireLevel are stepping up and being the light in the dark and helping businesses remain open while being clean and safe.
