Philanthropy Northwest is developing a fund inspired by the Minnesota Impact Investing Initiative which Cogent facilitated for Minnesota Council on Foundations. Visit their website to read more about their process and ours.
Philanthropy Northwest is exploring a bond fund that would give members an easy new way to make investments in the communities they care about. Modeled after a successful effort in Minnesota, we’re excited to explore this opportunity with our members. I’ll be hosting a lunch meeting during the annual conference where members can learn more and share ideas. In the meantime, here’s some background.
For grown-ups, back-to-school season means it’s Fall conference season. I’m excited to learn, share and connect at three national events: learn at the 10th Annual Great Plains Institutional Investor Forum, share our Midwest Impact Investing Landscape scan at Impact Engine’s Showcase in Chicago on October 1st, share at the MCF/MCN Annual Conference, and connect at SOCAP October 28-30th. Ping me if you’ll be there as I’d love to catch-up with you.
