Building good software is only part of the story. We care about the people and communities around us — and we try to run our business in a way that gives back and does the right thing.
A handful of real promises, honestly kept.
We're not a giant corporation with a foundation and a press team, and we're honest about that. What we do have is a skilled team, useful technology, and a genuine belief that a business should give something back to the world it operates in — not just extract from it.
So our approach to social commitment is simple: do what we can, do it honestly, and grow it as we grow. We'd rather make a handful of real promises and keep them than publish a glossy report full of numbers nobody ever checks. The commitments on this page aren't marketing — they're how we try to run a company we can genuinely be proud of, and a standard we hold ourselves to as we scale.
We build software for a living, but a business is more than what it sells. We're part of a community, and we want the way we work to add something to it — not just take from it. The best technology quietly makes life a little better for the people it touches.
That means using our skills where they can genuinely help, treating people fairly, and making responsible choices even when no one's watching. We're a growing company, so our commitments are honest and practical rather than grand — but they're real, and we're building on them as we grow. Doing the right thing rarely makes headlines, and that's fine by us.
We measure our work by the good it leaves behind.
We're a growing company, so we keep our promises small, honest, and the kind we can actually keep. Here is what we commit to — and what you are welcome to hold us to.
Put our skills to work for non-profits and causes, at little or no cost.
Share what we know and back local learning, so more people can build with technology.
Deal transparently, price fairly, and treat everyone we work with respectfully.
Make mindful, low-impact choices in how we run the business and build our software.
Give our time and skills to causes our team personally cares about.
Back community initiatives close to home, in the communities we are part of.
Keep a supportive, inclusive place where our team can grow and do their best work.
Team up with organisations doing meaningful work to help their ideas reach further.
The Symake Team
A promise we renew every dayWe're careful about where we commit our time and skills — and open about the different ways we can work together on the things that genuinely matter.
Causes where technology, problem-solving, or a fresh pair of hands genuinely moves the needle — not just where a logo looks good on a poster or a sponsor board.
The people and organisations around us and our team, where we can stay involved for the long haul, follow through properly, and see the difference we make with our own eyes.
A few things we can truly keep, rather than promising the world. Small and reliable beats big and forgotten, every single time — and it keeps us accountable for what we say.
Running a cause on a tight budget? Tell us what's slowing you down and we'll see how our skills and technology can help you do more with less — from a simple tool to a bigger helping hand.
We encourage everyone here to give time and skills to causes they care about, and we back them with the space and support to actually do it — because giving back should be part of the job.
If you're an organisation working on something meaningful, let's join forces, share what we know, and help each other reach further than either of us could alone.
If you're working on something that helps people or the planet, we'd love to hear about it — and see how we can help.
We're committed to giving back to our community, supporting good causes, and running our business responsibly and ethically.
We support causes and communities we care about, and we look for ways to use our skills and technology to help organisations doing good work.
Yes. We're happy to support non-profits and social organisations, and to explore how technology can help them do more with less.
We try to make responsible choices in how we work and build, and to keep improving as we learn what makes the biggest difference.
Absolutely. If you're working on something meaningful, reach out and let's talk about how we can help.
We believe in using our time and skills for good, and we encourage our team to get involved in causes they care about.
We focus on causes close to our community and our team, especially where our skills in technology and problem-solving can add real value.
Reach out through our contact page and tell us about your cause or idea, and we'll see how we can support it.
