There’s never been a more diverse, committed group of people motivated to do what’s right, say what’s wrong, and to build a better future. This is what gives us hope in these deeply challenging times.

We’re focused on impact at scale. In venture capital, “impact” is often associated with “small,” “mom and pop,” or “charity.” And the larger national collective imagination also undervalues companies that serve low and moderate income communities. We reject these expectations.

We look for business models where the forces that drive business success also increase ownership, opportunity, or other forms of empowerment. We search for teams who are familiar with those problems—and joys!—in the daily lives of low & moderate income communities of color.

Don’t miss us on October 22nd 11am PST/2pm EST for our second Entrepreneurial Listening Hour with Forbes 40 under 40 CareAcademy Founder & CEO Helen Adeosun, and Founder & General Partner of Impact America Fund Kesha Cash. Register today!
