Forward Financing

Turns out 13 climbs up a Utah mountain in 33 hours is a pretty good way to raise money for a good cause ⛰️

That's what our CEO Jason Mullins did this June, taking on enough vertical feet to match Mount Everest (that's 29,031 if you're counting), all in support of Junior Achievement Utah, part of Junior Achievement USA.

JA teaches young people financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship, the same kind of groundwork we see small business owners build on every day. It's personal too: Forward Financing has an office in Utah, and this felt like a great way to say hello to the neighborhood.

The whole Forward Financing team wanted in on the action (but maybe not the climb 😅). Together, with a company match, we raised $21,916 — $16,916 went to the Utah chapter, plus $5,000 Jason kicked in directly to JA of Canada.

Best of all, last week our leadership team flew out to Salt Lake City to hand-deliver the check in person (and take what might be our most enthusiastic group photo yet).

Congrats to Jason on the climb, and thank you to JA for the work you do giving young people the skills and confidence to build their futures ➡️

May is , but at Forward, well-being isn't a seasonal trend. We know that to show up for our small business customers, we have to show up for ourselves first.

Our employee benefits range from a flexible stipend for hobbies that help our team recharge to free Headspace subscriptions for daily mindfulness. Our approach to health is holistic, ensuring everyone has the support they need to stay balanced and refreshed.
