The Community Dividend
We stop the leak. Instead of sending profits to Wall Street, we reinvest them into the missing infrastructure of Southwest Washington.
The Problem: The "Leaky Bucket"
Right now, every dollar a local business spends on admin fees and insurance profit margins leaves our zip code immediately.
Local Business
Pays premiums & fees
Wall Street
Extracts profit.
Money is gone forever.
The Fix: Keeping It Here
Prosperity-Works captures that value. Because we are a Community-Based PEO, the "profit margin" doesn't leave. It goes into a dedicated Community Reinvestment Fund.
1. The Pool
Local employers join forces. By aggregating 500+ employees, we negotiate lower rates on insurance and benefits.
2. The Surplus
The savings and admin fees generate a surplus. Instead of paying shareholders, this capital is ring-fenced for the community.
3. The Reinvestment
Capital is deployed into high-impact local projects that help businesses grow—like childcare and workforce housing.
Our Investment Targets
We don't just write checks to charities. We invest in "Infrastructure Gaps" that prevent people from working.
Childcare Capacity
The Crisis: Parents can't work because there are no slots available.
The Fix: We subsidize new childcare centers and slots, directly increasing the local labor pool for our employers.
Workforce Housing
The Crisis: Employees are leaving because rent is outpacing wages.
The Fix: We provide "gap financing" for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and workforce housing projects reserved for local employees.
Upskilling & Training
The Crisis: The "Skills Gap" limits local hiring.
The Fix: We fund vocational training certifications for workers within the Prosperity-Works network.
