Investment thesis
Realize Impact aims to make impact investing easy, rewarding, and possible for everyone. Through its Philanthropic Investment Grant (PHIG) model, donors contribute funds and recommend investments, which the organization diligences, executes, and administers; returns are recycled into further impact. It serves entrepreneurs seeking philanthropic capital for social or environmental impact, fund managers looking to unlock philanthropic capital, and donor-investors. The organization also provides fiscal sponsorship for mission-driven groups lacking 501(c)(3) status and aggregates capital through investment partnerships. Its stated values are audacity, responsibility, and bridge-building, guided by the belief that all investing should be impact investing.
