"Our mission at Work Lodge is to build, maintain and grow reimagined workspaces for everyone – from the solopreneurs to fortune 500 companies – while also giving back to the community."

In addition to providing top-tier all-inclusive shared workspaces, The Work Lodge launched The Gabriel Project with the noble cause to shine light on the unloved, overlooked and unwanted in society. The Foundation funds programs focused around four worthy causes: building children's homes in India, fighting human trafficking, feeding those in need and providing micro-assistance to families and community members with focused, unavoidable needs. The Gabriel Project is fully funded by Work Lodge and its partnering businesses. To learn more, visit https://helpgabriel.org/.

"Because shared coworking spaces are in demand, potential Work Lodge franchisees have the opportunity to capitalize on an industry that hasn't yet been exploited while giving back to those in need. We're also able to provide Work Lodge franchisees with unmatched support ranging from site selection to lease negotiations to build-outs, we walk this process together, and do business with a greater purpose."
