Ep 11 - Charitable Capital Through DAFs & In The Mind of an Impact Investor with Aimee Minnich (Impact Foundation)

<p>Last year our team realized that it wasn't enough to create the best Strategy, Operational Scaling, and Coaching engagements possible for Impact focused projects. We noticed that often the individuals that know how to have that impact do not have the network or skillset to gain the investment levels necessary for their projects to succeed...and that is totally okay. We also noticed that there are so many individuals that wouldn't call themselves a "traditional high net worth investor", but are capable of getting in at the ground level of these projects and investing.</p> <p>Since then, we have committed to building relationships, exploring the tools available, and connecting the dots to ensure that the projects that need to be funded, are getting funded by like hearted individuals.</p> <p>In this week's podcast episode, we sit down with Aimee Minnich, Co-Founder and General Counsel of Impact Foundation. Currently there is $1 Trillion set aside in donor advised funds and private foundations, intended to be given to charities eventually. In the meantime it’s invested in stocks, bonds, mutual funds. Aimee and their team are working hard to use that "Charitable Capital" to facilitate investments in these types of projects.</p> <p>We talk to Aimee about all the legal and financial complexities (in layman's terms) and then talk about what goes on in the mind of an Impact Investor.</p> <p>This episode is not only a great launching point for anyone wanting to learn more or explore unique ways to give, but also for projects that are looking to explore the world of Impact Investing. </p> <p>If you want to learn more, you can check out Impact Foundation at https://impactfoundation.org</p>
