Get Involved
We are so proud of the work we do and we are thankful for the generous support of our volunteers, partners, and donors.
Financial Support
Ladder Up leverages more than $1 million in donated services, space, and goods each year to maximize returns for its clients, partners, and donors. Ladder Up’s 1,000+ volunteers constitute one of the largest volunteer workforces in the Midwest and partnering companies represent various sectors, including accounting, audit, banking, consulting, and law. By utilizing the donated service of its volunteers, along with donated office space, legal counsel, service locations, and software, Ladder Up returns an estimated $30 in benefits to clients for every $1 invested in the organization.
