We invest 100% of our foundation’s endowment
into change making businesses like yours.
Our Approach
We support entrepreneurs who offer solutions to social, economic, and environmental challenges.
The UnTours Foundation helps find and fuel the next generation of world-changing businesses, working with social entrepreneurs to solve the world’s most important issues and create opportunities and a more regenerative economy.
Investment
We invest in groundbreaking small businesses to help them succeed and grow.
Usually through loans, but sometimes through equity, we invest in businesses that have huge potential for positive impact and need a catalytic investor to encourage additional funders.
As a foundation, we achieve our mission through these investments, so we prioritize social returns while not ignoring financial returns. Our loans have low interest and flexible repayment terms. As activist investors, we assume risk to bet on a brighter future and an economy that serves all.
Networking
We connect our investees with other sources of capital.
Aside from our investment seeding other funding, we use our networks to connect entrepreneurs with foundations and businesses that will foster growth and investment and help smart ideas spread.
Mentorship
With our community of expert staff, consultants, and board members, we offer investees hands-on support and consulting.
From reviewing business plans to advocating for additional investment, we help provide the support and practical knowledge they need to thrive.
Advocacy
We champion progressive business and the growth of the Fair Trade and B Corporation movement.
Online and in the media, we promote mission-aligned investing, encouraging other foundations to invest their endowments in world-changing businesses.
