Impact changes communities. The process changes you.

Where can your investment strengthen social benefit and yield measurable results?

Impact Investing

Impact investing is a framework for aligning investments with values, not a specific asset class. The key is intentionally making investments that generate social and/or environmental benefits alongside financial returns. It’s a win-win.

Allison facilitates the connection of impact investors with professional advisors and prospective investees, ensuring an effective collaboration for each unique opportunity. With a respectful appreciation of community knowledge, she works with clients to explore opportunities that align with their personal interests and values so that they can make meaningful differences to communities in need.

Allison’s guidance was transformative. She used compelling stories and real-world examples to break down complex topics so our Investment Committee and Board really understood impact investing. She challenged us to reimagine how our foundation could authentically live out our values of centering community and advancing racial equity. It was an extraordinary process.”
