Equipping entrepreneurs, fulfilling lives.
Together with our nonprofit partners, we work to understand local communities and the small business landscape to identify gaps and develop customized, neighborhood-based programs that meet every entrepreneur where they are on their journey.
Our approach is to apply what we do best — being digital teachers, coaches, mentors and relentless advocates — as we focus on supporting the unique needs of entrepreneurs in underserved communities.
Internally, our goal is to create thoughtful, high-impact ways for employee volunteers to live out our vision and mission and experience first-hand how they can give back and improve lives.
We rally behind entrepreneurs no matter where they are in their journey.

Entrepreneur Testimonial
“When I joined Empower by GoDaddy, I didn’t even have a website. But through the program, I learned a lot about marketing and search engine optimization. I’m glad that I went through the program because it was also a way to network with other small business owners who experience a similar journey as yours and know the types of situations you may encounter.”
