The Angel Next Door Using Philanthropic Capital to invest in For-profit Companies
How can philanthropic capital be used to drive investments in for-profit companies, particularly those led by underrepresented founders?
In the latest episode of The Angel Next Door Podcast, hosts Marcia Dawood are joined by Patrice and Leah Brickman, founders of Inspire Access, a 501(c)(3) organization aiming to mobilize philanthropic capital to support underrepresented founders in the entrepreneurial space. The episode dives into the experiences and insights of Patrice and Leah, who discuss the impact of investment capital on businesses, particularly those led by women and people of color, and how Inspire Access is pioneering a new approach to redirecting donor-advised funds toward mission-aligned investments, ultimately bridging the investment gap for underrepresented entrepreneurs.
As Patrice and Leah share their expertise and experiences, they offer a compelling case for why redirecting philanthropic capital to support for-profit companies led by underrepresented founders is a crucial step in empowering and uplifting these entrepreneurs. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in impact investing, philanthropy, and promoting diversity and inclusion in entrepreneurship, as it offers a roadmap for driving positive change through strategic and purpose-driven investments.
