What is the epic pledge

Take the Epic Pledge to share your success

Through the Epic Pledge, we are building a community of like minded founders, entrepreneurs, shareholders, VCs, private equity firms, business angels, etc., all committed to tying their success to a commitment to give back and support high-impact nonprofits.

By pledging to give back a percentage of their future profits, our current pledgers are leading the way in their industries, demonstrating day after day that sharing one’s success can be a catalyst for business as well as support large scale social change.

  • As a founder or an individual shareholder, you make a commitment to give back a % of your personal proceeds from a liquidity event to social good (e.g.acquisition, IPO, partial exit).
  • As an investor, you pledge a % of your carried interest and/or management fees.

Think of Epic as your FaaS (Foundation as a Service) and the Epic Pledge as your plug and play solution to embedding purpose into your life’s work.

A small step today can be a catalyst for meaningful social change tomorrow.

We all know charity giving is a shot in the dark in most cases. Not [at Epic]. It’s charitable giving designed for the hard nosed investor.
