How do we drive more investment capital to nonprofits?
In partnership with TechSoup, Impact Finance Center is hosting the Nonprofit Investor Club.
While the nonprofit sector has long relied on philanthropy as its primary source of funding, increasingly nonprofits, as well as impact investors, are unlocking the benefits of directing investment capital into nonprofit organizations. Impact Finance Center, in partnership with TechSoup, is working to build the infrastructure to get more investment capital flowing to the nonprofit sector. We have created the Nonprofit Investor Club to act as a marketplace to directly connect investors with the projects they care about.
Nonprofit organizations need patient flexible capital to invest in building their capacity. It can be hard to find this type of capital from grant funding alone, which is often restricted for certain programs. When appropriately structured, investments into nonprofits can bring benefits both the nonprofit organization as well as for funders and investors. Nonprofits with earned revenue streams can take on debt to invest in growth, paying back investors over time with a modest interest rate. For funders, the return of capital plus a small amount of interest has the potential to be more impactful than a grant because the money can be reinvested or granted out at the end of the loan term.
Join the Nonprofit Investor Club to learn how you can invest in the nonprofit organizations that are working to solve society’s most pressing problems. In this presentation, nonprofit impact investors will share their stories, we will dive deep into innovative nonprofit investment models with TechSoup and other social ventures, and finish by hearing some quick pitches from other nonprofit organizations. You will have the opportunity to ask questions from leaders in the field, as well as gain access to live deals so that you can begin activating capital right away.
