Connect philanthropy to causes in our community.
The GoATL Fund is designed to accelerate and sustain social outcomes in our community through impact investing, the concept that strategically invested capital can achieve both a positive social impact and a financial return. This innovative fund will provide cost-effective loan capital to address our region’s most critical needs, from healthy, safe housing for every family to new schools for 21st century learners and more equitable access to living-wage careers. The purpose of the fund’s investments will be to support causes and enterprises aligned with the Foundation’s Impact Areas that provide sustainable, long-term benefit to the community, while also achieving capital preservation and a measurable financial return.
