The Pairadox Project
One project. Two organizations transformed.
When a business hires us for branding or web development, a nonprofit gets the exact same service - free. Here's how it works, and how you can get involved.

How It Works
Simple version: your project funds theirs.
You hire us for branding or web development.
Logo, website, full rebrand - whatever you actually need.
You pick a cause category.
Education, veterans services, animal welfare - whatever matters to you. We conduct a recorded random selection from nonprofits in that category.
Both projects get done.
Same process. Same quality. Same deliverables. The nonprofit gets exactly what you paid for.

For Businesses
You're already paying for design. Might as well double the impact.
Look - you came here because you need branding or a website. That's what we do. The Pairadox Project just means your project automatically funds equivalent work for a nonprofit in a cause category you care about.
You're not paying extra. You're not donating. You're just working with a company that puts its marketing budget into community impact instead of Facebook ads.
What you get:
The design work you came here for (obviously)
Selection of up to three cause categories
Participation in the recorded random selection
Pairadox Partner recognition package - plaque, badges, window sticker
Press release featuring your business and the nonprofit
A story actually worth telling
For Nonprofits
Professional design. No cost. No catch.
If you're a nonprofit or mutual aid org doing real work, you're probably eligible. No 501(c)(3) required - just 12 months of operation.
You apply. You get added to our pool. When a business picks your cause category, we do a live random drawing. If selected, you get the same service they paid for.
That's it. No business to find. No selling required. Just apply and wait.

Questions
What people usually ask
Does this cost extra?
Nope. Standard rates. We just redirected the money we'd spend on advertising into this instead.
Do I get to pick the specific nonprofit?
You pick the cause category. The specific org is selected through a recorded random drawing - no backroom deals.
How long has this been running?
Over 1 year and 2 months. We've done 11 pairings and given away $25,900+ in services.
Is this a tax write-off?
No - you're paying for services you receive. The donation is on our end.
What if the nonprofit doesn't want to participate?
We do another drawing. Nobody's forced into this.
Can larger nonprofits participate?
Orgs under $1M budget are eligible for free services. Larger nonprofits can become Pairadox Partners themselves - hire us, and fund a smaller org's project.
