Aspiritech has spent 17 years proving that an inclusive workforce isn’t just possible—it’s essential. But we can’t do it alone. Your donation today will fund employment, training, and community programs that empower autistic professionals to thrive.
At Aspiritech, we believe in peer recognition and celebrating collaboration within our team and community. As a nonprofit dedicated to creating employment opportunities for autistic adults as tech service providers, we’ve seen firsthand how a supportive workplace culture can make a world of difference.
That’s one reason we love using HeyTaco, a peer recognition tool that lets team members show appreciation by sending each other virtual tacos via Slack emoji. Whether it’s for solving a tough tech challenge, helping a teammate, showing up with positivity, or just sharing a laugh, giving each other tacos is our everyday way of saying “thank you.”
And now, those tacos are helping even more.
Through May 27, 2025, HeyTaco is turning feedback into funding by donating $10 to Aspiritech for every G2 review left about their platform. It’s part of their quarterly review drive, an initiative that blends customer feedback with corporate social responsibility. This quarter, we’re honored to be their featured nonprofit partner.
Aspiritech employs more than 100 autistic adults across the U.S. in meaningful roles, with neurodivergence represented at every level of our organization. Our team members work in software testing, accessibility audits, data services, web development and design, creative services, HR, sales and marketing, and leadership. Every one of them brings invaluable insights and unique perspectives to every task.
HeyTaco has become a daily part of our internal culture. Team members earn and give tacos for achievements big and small, and they can redeem tacos for Amazon gift cards, and sometimes pool individual taco balances together to hold in-person celebrations, which so far have included an ice cream social and an actual taco party at our Evanston headquarters. It’s proven to be a simple, effective way to build community, even when we’re working remotely across the country.
By choosing Aspiritech for this donation campaign, HeyTaco is directly supporting inclusive employment and helping expand our impact as one of the nation’s leading autism-focused workforce development nonprofits.
If you’re a HeyTaco user—or just a fan of companies that support inclusive workplaces—you can help, too. Leave a review of HeyTaco on G2 by May 27, and they’ll donate $10 to Aspiritech on your behalf. Your review will help more teams discover a tool that fosters recognition and belonging, and your voice will directly support a nonprofit committed to empowering neurodivergent talent.
No taco? No problem. You can also support Aspiritech by sharing this story, donating directly, or following us on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.
To the team at HeyTaco: Thank you for believing in the power of peer appreciation, and for using your platform to uplift others. Your support helps us grow our mission, raise awareness about autism employment, and show what’s possible when people are seen, supported, and celebrated for who they are.
“We hired them for the mission. We’ve kept them because they are excellent.”
Aspiritech, NFP
