About the Company

At Surus Enterprise, we are mobilizing a new generation of conservative civic leaders to rebuild America’s culture of stewardship, service, and community. Through thousands of volunteer-led experiences each year — from neighborhood cleanups, blood drives, and tree plantings to veteran support events, to educational speakers on important local and national topics — we’re strengthening the bonds of neighbors, increasing citizen engagement and reinvigorating consistent local participation. We’re rebuilding American Leadership!

If you thrive on mission, people, and impact, this is your chance to help lead the front lines of civic renewal.

At Surus, we develop engaging programming. We support this with best-in-class data, technology, and know how, all supported by our awesome and inspired team. We are scaling a transformation, inspiring citizens and moving the consciousness of America.  

America First, Conservative, and Libertarian organizations and companies seeking to engage the American citizenry and shape the trajectory of the American republic through their missions are turning to Surus to focus and support their efforts to develop and implement data and systems driven processes and inspire authentic and organic engagements 

Our efforts focus on leadership training, volunteer development, citizen engagement, fundraising, and communications.   

Surus Enterprise team members are entrepreneurial in spirit, curious, passionate, tireless, and invest in each other in support of a strong team culture. We communicate early and often and consistently as we have multiple dependencies. Our team members are specialists but also understand the roles of others across the company and live our overall mission, vision, and values as we work together to build a transformative company invested in shaping the trajectory of the American republic.
