About Spark901
We're a for-good, Memphis-rooted studio: contributions fund quality, open-source software for organizations that need it—especially nonprofits—so donations keep turning into durable public tools, not gated SaaS.
Rooted in Memphis, built for everywhere
Spark901 was born in Memphis—a city with deep roots in community, civil rights, and grassroots organizing. We believe the best technology comes from understanding the communities it serves.
Our area code, 901, isn't just a number—it's our identity. We're proud to be building technology that honors Memphis's legacy of community power while serving organizations worldwide.
