In the face of today’s growing social and environmental challenges, mainstreaming innovative approaches to #impactinvesting is essential. With over $1.8 trillion in donor advised funds and private foundations, there's a significant opportunity to move beyond the traditional "grow-then-grant" paradigm.

These “middle-ground” strategies are crucial to catalyzing capital more effectively and addressing urgent issues at scale.
