About Realize Impact

Realize Impact is a 501(c)(3) public charity that mobilizes philanthropic capital to invest in socially and environmentally impactful startups and funds. Our purpose is to make impact investing easy, rewarding, and possible for everyone. Learn more at www.realizeimpact.org. There’s a myth out there that you can’t (or shouldn’t) invest in doing good in the world and reap a financial reward. The tradeoff: The more you invest in solving the world’s most pressing issues—like global poverty, climate change, or the housing crisis—the less financial return you can (or should) expect. But what if that wasn’t true? At Realize Impact, we do more than reject that myth. We enable its opposite. Every day, we work to make impact investing—investing in positive social or environmental benefit and seeking financial return—easy, rewarding, and possible. We do this because it’s critical. The problems we’re collectively facing today are big, and when we make assumptions about solving them—like, that it’s the government’s job to solve climate change, or it’s philanthropy’s job to solve hunger—we diminish our very potential to do so. Sure, government and philanthropy are useful tools. But we need the whole tool belt. That means broadening our support to include environmentally and socially driven for-profits: organizations that dream big, move quickly, and can scale to create solutions near and far, whether it’s housing for refugees in Spokane, micro-lending for low-income women entrepreneurs of color in California, sustainable agribusiness in Kenya, or ocean plastic removal around the world. At Realize Impact, we know that people want their charitable dollars to have an impact, and we understand they want to manage their assets wisely, too. But far too often, money that could be used to drive change is parked on Wall Street. We’re here to empower entrepreneurs and for-profits to make an impact at a far greater scale than philanthropy alone.
