👋 Here's the update that I promised: I've chosen to pivot my career to work on shifting our food system to be in alignment with common values. 🐣 Most of us (carnivores to vegans) find that our current agricultural system is not serving our values. We adore animals, and don't believe that they should unnecessarily suffer. Despite this, three-quarters of our global animal products continue to come from factory farms (https://lnkd.in/grmti3Xt), subjecting well-above 50 billion animals to cruel conditions every year. Simultaneously, less than 0.5% (~$200 M/year) of charitable dollars go to helping farmed animals. 🌍 I’m working on bringing more funds to this cause, and am honoured to join the incredibly dedicated community that is creating a better food system. 📚 I've been learning at Faunalytics, an impactful organization that empowers animal advocates with original research, a curated research library, and direct research support. As part of my fundraising role, I've had the privilege of immersing myself in their findings and learning from Liz Wheeler, a leader in the movement's fundraising space! ✍ In complement, I've just started as an incubatee within ProVeg Incubator's Kickstarting For Good program. I'll be combining my learnings, from nonprofit consulting and direct nonprofit work, with mentorship from this incredible program in attempts to co-found a nonprofit that brings more funds to the movement. 💖 A major thanks to the community that supported this pivot: Faunalytics, ProVeg Incubator, High Impact Professionals, & Animal Advocacy Careers!

The term “impact investing” can have a different meaning depending on the situation, audience and end goal. At 20Fund we believe in a multifaceted definition where we not only invest in the people and startup but also in elevating the communities in which we all live. I applaud our portfolio companies because they each take time out of their schedules to volunteer or mentor others. Here’s the first of many examples which differentiate 20Fund and its investments from others in the ecosystem. Join us in making the world a better place one action at a time.

As a fund dedicated to sustainability, we recognize the importance the environment has on our children. 🎒 Today, we proudly cleaned the facade of an elementary school in Turin Italy, the home of 20Fund. Children deserve a clean and beautiful environment to grow and learn. 📅 With this event we kick off a monthly series showcasing how our startups give back to their communities. We look forward to sharing our collective commitment to our communities. 🤗 Thank you Lorenza Patriarca for believing in 20Fund. 🤗 Thanks to 𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐭𝐬 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐒𝐫𝐥 . 👇 In photo, the facade of elementary school "Francesco D' Assisi"- I.C.

Earlier this month I had the immense good fortune to participate in the Social Innovation Summit - a gathering of 1,000+ #socialimpact leaders from around the country dishing on, among many things, how to build a more durable, inclusive, vibrant economy (and set of integrated communities within it), for everyone. They were gracious enough to tag me into a panel with the Walton Family Foundation, Blackstone Charitable Foundation, Rotary International, and Art in Motion Creative Arts School where we waxed on about all the things including: What would happen if, instead of relegating people to what they've done or what's been done to them, we lift them up for the greatest strengths they have? Or, what would happen if we understood the circumstances of navigating the trappings of poverty (and all the problem solving, creativity, and strategery that necessitates) as not just one's lived experience, but as one's true and durable #livedexpertise? We at REDF are committed to helping the world see that life's not-so-easy pathways are often rich with skills outsized to that which one can pin on a resume. Put simply, we're on a mission to redefine how our country sees #talent and to demonstrate the value that's created for businesses and communities as a result. Check out my (delightful) rant below. #SocialEnterprise #SocialInnovation #InclusiveEmployment #InclusiveEconomy #SIS24
