MCF has a partnership with ImpactAssets, a market leader in impact investing. Leveraging ImpactAssets’ significant expertise, MCF is able to offer donors the ability to identify and support ventures in fields that matter to them personally. Whether locally or anywhere in the world, donors now have an opportunity to engage in impact investing by leveraging their philanthropic assets in a way that can have both a measurable impact and a possible financial return back to the donor’s fund at MCF.
