  Joule Growth Partners

In Spring 2021, Bill Kiolbasa, CEO of Joule Growth Partners (JGP), showcased a novel approach to corporate social responsibility, relevant to startups and emerging entities. Bill’s career journey, from public accounting to nonprofit leadership and philanthropy, highlighted the importance of combining a savvy business perspective with clear communication for nonprofits. JGP, under his leadership, streamlines operations and financial processes for clients, allowing social sector leaders to focus more on their missions. Reflecting JGP’s commitment to social responsibility, Bill advocates for increased college degree attainment to combat educational inequities and poverty, particularly among communities affected by historical and ongoing oppression. JGP donates part of its revenue to Believe in Students, inspired by Bill’s personal appreciation for education and the need to challenge socioeconomic barriers. By integrating donations into JGP’s monthly business cycle, the company consistently supports student success while prospering financially. Bill also shares lighter moments, like humorous reflections on parenting and negotiating with his assertive three-year-old son.
