"Small Business Big Impact Day" benefitted 240+ local small businesses and nonprofit organizations

To kick off Intuit's 40th anniversary, 10,000 employees worldwide participated in "Small Business Big Impact Day" on Feb. 15, 2023. This initiative led by Intuit QuickBooks and Mailchimp supported small business customers and nonprofit organizations in their communities, demonstrating Intuit’s longest standing core value of We Care & Give Back, encouraging employees to take an active role in improving their local communities.

$1 million infused into local communities, small businesses, and nonprofits

Dedicated to uniting employees for the purpose of strengthening and giving back to local communities, Intuit purchased $1 million-worth of items directly from local small businesses that was donated to local nonprofits. Employees gather at 17 offices in the Americas, Australia, Europe, India, Israel, and Singapore to sort, package, and deliver these products.

In all, 200 small businesses benefited from Intuit’s product purchases of items to include in hygiene kits, pantry food bags, and blankets, 40 nonprofits received small business product donations from Intuit, aligning to each nonprofits greatest needs, and an estimated 10,000 volunteer hours will be tallied across all sites.


Here are a few of the many U.S. offices and employees who participated in this event:
