Help Solve Today’s Challenges by Investing in Impact Organizations
The Capital Gap for Impact Organizations
Many impact organizations—including non-profits, co-operatives, and social enterprises—face barriers when seeking the right kind of growth capital:
- Limited access to collateral or guarantees
- Revenue models that are not well understood by traditional lenders
- Persistent misconceptions that impact-focused organizations are “risky”
