Enterprise Capital Strategy Development
Many funders and donors are rethinking their grantmaking practices to integrate unrestricted and multi-year funding, known as Enterprise Capital, into their portfolios. Capitalize Good works closely with funders to understand the funder’s impact focus areas and underwrite Enterprise Capital grants to prospective organizations.
Once the underwriting is complete, Capitalize Good works with funders and their decision-making bodies to structure the grants, implement impact-monitoring mechanisms, and provide targeted financial technical assistance services where appropriate.
Enterprise Capital Fund Design
Capitalize Good works with individual funders and funding collaboratives to develop Enterprise Capital funds that aggregate capital from multiple sources to deploy into organizations that would otherwise not receive this type of funding at scale.
In partnership with a diverse group of stakeholders, Capitalize Good assists with the design of the funding vehicle, funding parameters, governance process, and management and operationalization of the strategy.
Finance Training
Capitalize Good facilitates workshops and training sessions for funders to provide basic finance education, which can inform and enhance funding practices.
Through case studies and exercises, participants gain an understanding of how they can partner with nonprofit grantees to provide funding that aligns with the actual costs of programmatic delivery and organizational management.
