SVP 2023 Impact Fund
The SVP100: We are seeking 100 Fund Partners in 2023 to join us in raising $200,000 for 20 nonprofits in the Greater Sacramento region. Join us!
Become a 2023 Impact Fund Partner
Each year, SVP leadership determines the mission of the annual investment fund. Our partner community comes together to pool funds through various levels of annual contributions. We use those funds to create multiple moments through the year which are unique and fun ways to build up our nonprofit partners in the Greater Sacramento region.
A Three Phase Approach with Big Regional Impact
What Will the Impact Fund Do?
We bring community impact investors (SVP Partners) into a multi-stage process to create leveraged value and a ripple effect through the nonprofit sector in Greater Sacramento. We begin with a broad outreach to nonprofits and work with our partners to select 18 vetted organizations to showcase. Our Partners then narrow the field down to ten nonprofits which go through a three month process to hone their pitch for our annual Fast Pitch event. One nonprofit is then selected as the recipient of an annual ‘investment’ of unrestricted funding for a major project that further achieves the stated mission of the annual SVP Investment Impact Fund.

Phase 1: Launch
We will select 18 nonprofits to showcase their mission to our Partners at our Fast Pitch Launch Golf Tournament. Our Partners will nominate the top ten to move into Phase Two of the SVP annual impact investment round. Each nonprofit participating in Phase One will receive a donation for participating.

Our SVP Partners and Board of Directors will work together to select one nonprofit for a multi-year project investment involving time and money invested from SVP Partners via the Annual Impact Fund. The selected organization will receive a up to a $75,000 multi-year unrestricted grant from the fund. A SVP Partner lead will collaborate with the organization to establish goals and milestones, and bring in additional professional resources as needed.
