Your giving has
more to give.

Abundance Capital is a nonprofit venture philanthropy platform that empowers charitable donors to turn their giving into impact-first investments.

Learn How It Works

Capital is not scarce. Activation Is. 

Billions of charitable dollars are sitting idle while mission-driven companies and community organizations lack access to flexible capital.

The Solution: Venture Philanthropy

Venture philanthropy applies the principles of venture capital to social impact using charitable resources instead of traditional investment capital. The goal is community returns over financial ones.

It is a patient, flexible, and renewable form of giving. Impact-first investments fill a critical gap for organizations underserved by both traditional philanthropy and conventional financing. 


As a nonprofit donor-advised fund (DAF) sponsor, Abundance Capital makes donor-directed impact-first investments into nonprofit organizations, impact-driven businesses, funds, and real estate.
"Abundance is a powerful platform for donors who want to use their philanthropy in new and innovative ways. We appreciate the opportunity to invest in social entrepreneurs who might otherwise struggle to gain funding — and the chance to regenerate a portion of our charitable funds when investments are repaid. That's a very different level of impact than a grants-only fund."
 - Neil  and Joy Grayson

Measuring Impact:
Angels in Action

Since our founding in 2022, Abundance Angels have built a portfolio of high-impact investments across sectors and communities that support healthy, equitable outcomes.

We screen for impact first.  

Every possible investment draws on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, which are widely used by mainstream investors and enterprises that support peace and prosperity for people and the planet.

“I love the idea of using the same dollar over and over. When capital comes back and goes out into the community again, that’s when philanthropy really starts to multiply.”
