California Sustainable Forestry Social Venture Application: Investor Club Catalog
How do we drive more investment capital to social ventures (i.e. projects, nonprofits, small businesses, startups, cooperatives, tandem-hybrids, and funds) working in the sustainable forestry sector within California?

In partnership with Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC), Impact Finance Center is working to build the infrastructure to achieve this goal. The infrastructure includes Investor Accelerators (Impact Investing Giving Circles) and Investor Clubs that act as a marketplace to directly connect investors with the projects they care about.

If you are a social venture in this sector within California (i.e. projects, nonprofits, small businesses, startups, cooperatives, tandem-hybrids, and funds), and you need to raise capital (debt, revenue based financing or equity) to grow and thrive, please fill out the form below to be considered for the investment catalog and a slot during the quick pitch portion of the Investor Club gatherings.

To be selected, social ventures must meet the following qualifications:
1) The social venture has an investment
2) The social venture is currently raising capital
3) The social venture uses California wood

Please note that space is limited so all applications may not be approved for this round.

In order to complete the application process, you must fill out this brief survey about your social venture's investment opportunity. The sooner you submit it, the more chances you have to get your investment opportunity in front of the investors we work with.

To get an idea of what we're looking for, here is an example of a social venture's page in the investment catalog: https://investing.impactfinancecenter.org/article/place
