The Rootstock Project is a Chicago-based nonprofit organization that aims to bridge the gap between nonprofits in need of business expertise and MBA graduates seeking careers in the social impact sector. Through generous sponsorships from donors, they deploy mission-driven talent from top business school programs to serve partner nonprofits, providing capacity-building support and addressing key challenges faced by these organizations.
The Rootstock Project removes obstacles such as timing, compensation, and access, allowing nonprofits to access mission-driven MBA talent, enabling MBA students to pursue careers in the social impact sector, and amplifying the effectiveness of donor philanthropy. They partner with MBA program career services teams to manage the administrative elements of the recruiting process and work hand-in-hand with nonprofit partners to select candidates who can fill critical roles in their organizations.
