Even as a Yankee fan, I enjoy coming to #Boston — especially when it involves a noble cause. ?? My team at the Diverse Investing Collective and I had the opportunity to host a day of events in Boston with The Impact Collective, a nonprofit that empowers folks with class privilege to leverage their influence to close the racial #wealthgap. ?? Julia Johannsen, the founder and Executive Director, and her team are doing great work! ???? It was inspiring to hear Julia's journey alongside Erika Seth Davies, CEO of Rhia Ventures and Dr. Ruth Shaber, President of the Tara Health Foundation.???? ???????? I enjoyed meeting amazing people dedicated to advancing #equity in #finance. I learned about so many amazing organizations in the space such as the Third Sector, Leadership Brainery, Inc., and the Black Economic Council of Massachusetts, Inc. (just to name a few). ?? A BIG thanks to Julia and her *entire* team for being wonderful co-hosts, with special appreciation to Hillary Babick, CFRE and Amara Donovan. ???? Special thanks to our sponsors, Putnam Investments and Trillium Asset Management, with a special shout out to Trillium's CEO, Matt Patsky, and Putnam's Head of Sustainability Strategy, Jackie VanderBrug. ?? Extra special s/o to Trillium's Dee Dalrymple for all of her hard work too! ?? If you’re interested in learning more about our advocacy work, follow us on Linkedin and check out these links: ??
