Community investment objectives
- They invest in and support development projects community requiring modest amounts of capital. They finance projects that belong to the local community, whose social impact and return on investment can be measured and whose success can be sustained. In a spirit of innovation, they target a diverse 'portfolio' of projects and geographies to spread creative solutions.
- They strive to discover and apply the best practices of social investment at a personal level on a small scale. Their process invites an ongoing direct connection with the sponsored community rather than a single, anonymous donation. They believe it is possible to invest in projects that increase community well-being while avoiding unintended harm. They operate with minimal overhead and a goal of channeling nearly 100 % of grant resources to the intended community project.
