Our Mission
At Ethos, we’re dedicated to surfacing the stories that exist in all of us, demonstrating how we can create social and environmental value. Our mission is to create a more sustainable and equitable future by supporting individuals and organizations in delivering better social value. We believe that true change comes from understanding and amplifying the unique stories of those on the front lines. Only by making social value ‘first person’ will we achieve change. That’s you -)
