Place-Based Investing for Inclusive Communities

In a moment when communities are feeling real pain in real time, place-based investing offers something many capital strategies can’t: urgency, context, and accountability to the people who live with the outcomes. Recorded live at SOCAP25, this episode of Money + Meaning brings together foundation leaders pushing beyond the traditional “5%” grantmaking model and putting their full balance sheets to work. The panel explores what it actually takes to align endowments with mission, how internal teams are restructuring to break down silos, and why collaboration across institutions isn’t optional — it’s part of the responsibility.
