Can Business do well and good?
As the Minnesota Council on Foundations’ executive in residence, I will be regularly contributing posts to their blog. In my first post I reveal my journey into the impact investing world and the questions which have driven my pursuit to enact positive social change.
What I'm doing now
Who knew how much I missed business travel? Despite the still-cramped seats, forced close proximity to other humans in a small capsule, and a few crabby passengers, after a 2 year hiatus, it was great to get back on the road. Thank you Impact PHL for giving me an excuse to visit our long-time client The Barra Foundation in Philadelphia. Their Total Impact Summit was invigorating, educational and inspiring, especially seeing all the local funds and Black led developers working to create economic opportunities in the city. Can’t wait to go to San Francisco for SOCAP and the National Center for Family Philanthropy conferences in October. Ping me if you’ll be there!
