Mezzanine funding required to scale We offer high-risk funding in the $1M – $3M range, with grants for nonprofits and flexible debt for for-profit or revenue generating ventures. Key Criteria for Funding: • Scale : A well-defined operating plan and a venture that has product-market fit with a clear path to significant growth.

Strong CEOs and leadership teams that are well-suited to solve this particular challenge.
• Breadth: Directly serving at least 5,000 customers/year. • Depth: Proven & directly attributable impact having a transformative improvement in quality of life. • Target population: The most underserved, with no measurable access to markets or alternative opportunities.

Our Commitment to Ventures Centering co-creation and partnership We develop shared operating agreements with every venture so all parties can engage fully and authentically.
Together, we build a diligence calendar together with each venture so it’s clear how we engage with each other and when. Transparency in decision-making From inbound pipeline all the way until the end of diligence, we ensure that ventures know how and why our team makes all decisions along the way.
