Community Capital Advisors

With CCA’s broad network of collaborators, we’re always looking to keep our pulse on the impact investing industry. We’re excited to have two senior-level consultants attending Confluence Philanthropy’s 15th Anniversary Practitioners Gathering. Bert Feuss, Senior Advisor, specializes in the alignment of investment capital and practices with a mission to advance racial equity, inclusive economies, sustainable growth and healthy communities. Steven Godeke leads independent searches for impact investing advisors and collaborates with asset owners to support investor readiness that deepens the environmental and social impact of their work. With the Gathering focused on convening values-aligned investors and their partners to transform the practice of investing, CCA looks forward to learning about practices that build a common future through the interwoven nature of relationship, interdependence, and money so we can better serve the foundations and mission-driven organizations we work with.

“E Pluribus Unum - Out of many, One“. CCA believes we have the power to create positive change through the work we do and understand that relationship-building, cooperation, and mutual respect is key. Confluence Philanthropy 15th Anniversary Practitioners Gathering is centered around a deep commitment to relationship, convening values-aligned investors and their partners to transform the practice of investing. We look forward to attending and knowledge-sharing with industry leaders and practitioners.
