We are particularly interested in companies that are committed to addressing the issues within African-American and Latinx communities.

Our investments have truly made a difference in a variety of areas – education equality, easy access to quality health care and nutritious foods, disruption of predatory lending, improving the lives of incarcerated individuals, reducing carbon emissions in neighborhoods of color, and so much more.
We generate wealth in low-income communities. More wealth means more money can change hands, creating a ripple effect of new financial, investment, job and other opportunities for growth.
