Accelerating change through impact investing

About Mission Driven Finance

Bold visions, innovative enterprises, and great community programs deserve the opportunity to succeed. Unfortunately, many businesses and communities are unable to access the capital they need from conventional funding sources. The result is too many worthwhile endeavors struggling to achieve scale.

Launched in 2016 in San Diego, Mission Driven Finance is an impact investing firm and certified B corp entirely focused on private market impact transactions and asset management. Dedicated to building financial products that enable capital to flow to where it doesn’t but should, all MDF funds and structured products are designed to close financial gaps in order to close opportunity gaps. We work with local and national investors to help them create the impact they want and work with businesses and community partners to help them get the capital they need. 

What we're about

We make investments that aren't happening but should

We see businesses, projects, and ideas that conventional finance overlooks — and we build the capital structures that help them get funded.

We use finance as a tool for change

Every dollar through every fund is designed to close a real gap: in access to credit, in homeownership, in child care, in fund-manager capital.

We make it easy to invest in your community

For investors, allocators, and partners who want their money working alongside their values, we make the path from interest to impact a short one.
