Hi, I’m Jeff Greim, Founder of Jeff’s Granola

Jeff’s Granola is a social enterprise exploring how you can support  the charities you love by purchasing the things you love. I started the company in 2012 when I was the Graduate Director of NonProfit studies at Bay Path University in Longmeadow, MA. I had recently written a paper on the consumer brand “Newman’s Own” which was established by actor Paul Newman and donates 100% of profits to charity. I was inspired by their business model and impressed by their success. This idea works! But I wanted to take it a step further. Why should the company choose where to donate your profits? Jeff’s Granola let’s you donate the profits from your purchase to your favorite charity. We collaborated with a local professional baker to came up with our product, unique and delicious granola. Flash forward to today, and Jeff’s Granola’s total donations have exceeded $35,000.

As of September 2022, we are now focusing on building our school partnerships, where we can make a big impact with big donations to support students. We currently work with school districts in Springfield, MA, Boston, MA, and Providence, RI, and we look forward to hearing from you.
