RSF Social Finance is a financial services organization dedicated to revolutionizing how people relate to money. RSF provides opportunities for people to align their investing and giving with their values and connects social entrepreneurs with diverse forms of capital. We believe that people are served best by long-term financial relationships that are direct, transparent, and personal. These relationships build the foundation for trust and collaboration to emerge, leading to long-term social, economic, and ecological benefits. Since 1984, RSF has made over $500 million in loans, grants, and investments supporting social enterprises in the areas of food & agriculture, education & the arts, and ecological stewardship.

Yesterday, we had the honor of attending the grand opening of our borrower GoodrCo.'s new grocery store in San Francisco! Goodr addresses the twin crises of hunger and food waste by connecting food businesses with government agencies and nonprofits that feed communities. Through its Goodr Grocery Store program, Goodr manages stores in schools, healthcare centers, and other accessible locations that help families shop for free groceries. We're proud to help finance Goodr through this period of exceptional growth, and were honored to attend the opening of their first store on the West Coast at Martin Luther King Jr. Academic Middle School in San Francisco. Congratulations, Goodr!
