    Who is this for?

    This program is designed for individuals, families, foundations, and institutions who:

    • Believe deeply in a specific venture, fund, or impact investment's potential for impact
    • Have a DAF, foundation, or capacity to make a $55,000+ philanthropic gift
    • Want their gift to catalyze broader community investment
    • Are ready to see the venture, fund, or impact investment raise capital on CataCap's platform

    What happens after you champion a deal?

    We reach out to the venture, fund, or impact investment and help them complete a short application so our team can review and approve their deal. Once it's approved, you'll get an email to finalize your gift — and the venture, fund, or impact investment can begin raising philanthropic capital from their broader community.

    100% philanthropic capital

    All investments on CataCap are donation-funded — made through DAFs, foundations, or direct charitable gifts. There is no expectation of financial return.
