Foundations, Not-for-profits & Mission-Based Investing

Foundations, Not-for-profits

Foundations and not-for-profits are generally focused on providing an enormously important public benefit. Indeed, the impact of hard working not-for-profits and foundations across the nation has provided immeasurable benefit to the quality of life here and abroad.

It is a great irony, however, that so many foundations and not-for-profits invest in a manner that’s contrary to the goodwill that underlies their basic missions, perhaps by investing in tobacco companies, or companies that discriminate, pollute, or provide unsafe working conditions.

More and more, foundations and not-for-profits are looking to align their mission and values with their investments, while still meeting their financial and fiduciary responsibilities, but are seeking the objective guidance they need to begin the process.

Good Harvest has, for over 20 years, been focused on responsible investing and aligning values with smart investment. With our experience, we can help evaluate current investment methods and point out deficiencies. We can help you craft an investment statement that specifies areas of preferred avoidance as well as preferred investment.

Should you wish to go beyond our consulting services, we can also provide our own in-house investment management along with our team of outside managers, all experienced at integrating investors’ values with financial goals.
