Phase 3: Accelerate
Fast Pitch
Accelerator
Since 2008, SVP has pooled together funding to make significant contributions with our nonprofit partners. We select one organization from our annual cohort to "go big" and invest both funding and professional resources to accelerate the impact they can make in the region. We will invest a minimum of $50,000 through our annual Fast Pitch Accelerator.
Over $1.7M has been invested directly into our community since 2008
Leveraged Impact Through Partnership
Active Investees
We are eager to relaunch the ACCELERATE element of our Annual SVP Investment Impact Fund in 2024. Since 2008, Social Venture Partners has worked with many local nonprofits donating time and money to make significant contributions toward capacity building in the region. We will select one nonprofit from the 2023 cohort to invest a multi-year $50,000 - $75,000 project that helps to build capacity, and to advance the mission outlined in the 2023 SVP Investment Impact Fund.
Projects We Can Help to Accelerate
Through our Fast Pitch Accelerator, we can get behind a number of projects that help to further the mission of the annual Impact Fund. Here are a few examples of projects that may fit.
Develop a sustainable business/revenue model
Increase collaboration with other area nonprofits
Implement CRM tools to improve donor engagement
Major facility renovation and remodels
Revamp and relaunch organization branding
Develop new creative ways for improve service
