Organization Information

Mission Statement

We create jobs and help small and medium-size businesses grow by pairing them with volunteer business experts. The Business Council for Peace (Bpeace) is an award-winning nonprofit working in crisis-affected communities to grow small and medium-size businesses, create significant employment for all, and expand the economic power of women. More jobs mean less violence. We deliver high-quality customized business consulting through volunteer business experts we call "Skillanthropists," to carefully vetted small and medium-size businesses we call "Fast Runners." Together we are in pursuit of a common vision; we believe that employment is the bridge to education, poverty reduction, improved health and ultimately less violence; and that jobs for women are vital to women’s advancement and to elevating their peaceful influence on society.

Description

In 2021, Bpeace Skillanthropists are working with 100+ small and medium-size business owners in the U.S., El Salvador, Guatemala and Afghanistan. More than 32,000 family members depend on the jobs these Fast Runners provide.

I first volunteered with BPEACE, because of a posting here on VolunteerMatch, in 2008, & I have volunteered with them on and off ever since. They area always clear about how they need help, they give me clear guidance on what success looks like for a volunteer undertaking that task, and they are profuse in their thankyous. I feel like what I do is valued by BPEACE, and I feel like I know where my little volunteer contribution fits overall. They keep me as updated about their work as any contributor, financial for volunteer. I am a huge fan of this organization!
