The Institute's mission is "Closing equity gaps in America". We are a venture capital firm and partner of choice for exceptional entrepreneurs who are building scalable, sustainable businesses in a long-term effort to close equity gaps in America. We also recognize that capacity building and supporting organizations and experts that have been working towards social causes is equally important in making a positive impact within society.
We invest and help build ecosystems in four core focus areas: Learning and Academic Achievement, Healthy Youth Development, Economic Opportunities for All, and Resilient Communities.
