Your Mission. Our space.
Welcome to Space for Good @ BaySix, Where Nonprofits, Community Organizations, and Businesses Work to Move Philanthropic Missions Forward
BaySix donates the use of part of our Downtown Raleigh warehouse for approved members to work and gather. At BaySix, we’re good people making good products for other good people–and now we are happy to provide space for good, too!
The Challenge: Space is hard to come by in our vastly growing city. Not only is it hard to find, but it’s costly, too. Non-profits have limited budgets and need accessible space to work to advance their missions. They need space to meet and collaborate, to plan and strategize, to fundraise and network, to learn and share ideas. BaySix, an imprint and branding company in Downtown Raleigh, has worked closely with many non-profits over the years and recognizes this need. As a local, small business that is committed to this community and to giving back, we knew how we could help: Space. We had 625 square feet in our warehouse that wasn’t being used to its full capacity, so the idea for Space for Good @ BaySix was born. BaySix owner and president Katherine Dickinson Garcia’s father, Robert P. Dickinson, III, always said, “You give what you can because you can.” BaySix gives space because we can.

Holt Brothers Foundation
Torry Holt was 10 and his younger brother Terrence was six when their mother Ojetta was diagnosed with lymphoma. After she passed away, they made a commitment to help and support children who have a parent or guardian with cancer; and for 20+ years the Holt Brothers Foundation has been delivering on that promise.
The foundation’s flagship program is KidsCAN!, an educational and peer support program for kids who have a parent or guardian with cancer. Since 2018 the foundation has offered a scholarship program for KidsCAN! alumni for secondary education purposes. In addition, they also support Camp Kesem, a sleep-away camp for children ages 6–16 who have a parent or guardian with cancer. Learn more at HoltBrothersFoundation.org.
