Our Purpose

What does community look like? About half of Hesthefner’s sales go directly back to hard working, blue collar artists, supporting their lives and families, adding stability to their careers and their craft. 

Hesthefner gives 10% of profits to community organizations and causes we believe in, like The NW Abortion Access Fund, Kairos PDX, My Voice Music, Milk Crate Kitchen, Crag Law Center, Prism Health, and many more.

In 2019 Hesthefner became the first Certified B Corporation music agency on the planet, providing tangible metrics, social sustainability and environmental standards, and committing to public transparency in the global B Corp community. This isn’t just a humble brag, it’s a commitment to our clients, artists and the community; guiding us in how we do our work and also in what we won’t do. Our core belief is "Together Sounds Better.” When this leads to the perfect pairing of music and picture, that's pretty cool too.

Learn all about how we engage with our community below.

With every license and every project, your dollar goes back into the artist community. We’re joined together in our purpose to leave the world a bit better, brighter and more interesting than it was before.

Every quarter, Hesthefner partners with community organizations to donate 10% of our profits  — from our slice of the pie, never from our artists’ share.

As a Certified B Corp, Hesthefner strives to do business as a force for good; an ethos that aligns well with our purpose of "Be Community”. This means we are held to the highest level of accountability, balancing people, planet and profit.
