Give

Many ways to give.
Many ways to be impactful.

RSF Social Finance offers a variety of giving opportunities. From the seed fund to our collaboratives, we provide donors with a number of ways to accelerate the work of social enterprises solving complex social and ecological issues. In addition, choosing RSF as your partner connects you to an active community of values-aligned donors, investors, and staff.

Collaboratives

Since 1984, RSF has identified, evaluated, supported and nurtured social enterprises in North America, matching them with the capital they need to succeed and thrive. Our collaboratives provide an opportunity for donors to join us in this work. Each collaborative utilizes gift money and transforms it through our unique integrated capital approach to provide enterprises with diverse forms of capital — loans, grants, and investments — along with the resources and connections they need.
