EVII Mission Hills Featured Among New SuperCrowd Impact Offerings - April 27, 2026

Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a curated list of new investment offerings added to FINRA-registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. Using the SuperCrowd Classification Policy, we highlight offerings that qualify for Social Impact, Women in Leadership, and Underrepresented Founder Leadership based on publicly available information and objective criteria. We prioritize these categories and also include other newly launched offerings that may be of interest to our community.

We organize the opportunities into four groups:

Social Impact offerings
Women in Leadership offerings
Underrepresented Founder Leadership offerings
Other new offerings added during the week

In some cases, classification details become clear only after additional public information is available. When an offering meets the criteria, we include it in the appropriate category, even if it was not part of the original weekly list. See the categorized offerings below.

The company is raising funds through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder.

Skip’s superpower—team building—has been critical to assembling a high-performance team at Lagom Development.

Don’t Let a Five-Minute Application Become a Missed Opportunity

Founders are busy.

That is not a cliché. It is the operating condition of the job.

You are selling, hiring, raising capital, serving customers, fixing problems, managing cash, supporting your team and trying to keep one eye on the long-term vision while today’s urgent work demands everything you have.

That is why the easiest tasks sometimes get pushed aside.

Not because they are unimportant.

Because they are easy.

PurposeBuilt100™ applications are open now. The application is free. It takes about three to five minutes.

That makes it tempting to say, “I’ll do it later.”

But this is one of those moments when later can quietly become never.

Impact Investors Deserve Fair Terms

Everyday investors who want to invest for impact run a real risk: we may accept more financial risk, or lower potential returns, than we can afford simply because we care about the mission.

There are times when I absolutely support that kind of philanthropic approach.

I make Kiva loans every month. I do that knowing I won’t earn a financial return. In fact, after defaults and currency losses, I expect to get back a little less than I put in. I’m comfortable with that because I value the impact. In my mind, those are philanthropic investments.

But most of our money can’t be treated that way.

For ordinary investors—people saving for retirement, college, a home purchase, a rainy day or simply a more secure future—most investments need to be priced to produce a reasonable return for the risk involved.

That is especially true in regulated investment crowdfunding.

Reg CF offerings are risky. Startups fail. Small businesses struggle. Even good founders with good intentions can run out of money, miss projections or discover that the market is harder than expected.

Impact matters deeply to me. Every Reg CF investment I make has to pass an impact test. But impact does not eliminate financial risk. It does not make valuation irrelevant. It does not make unfair terms fair.

He described the historic White House signing ceremony and bipartisan efforts behind the legislation.
Woodie emphasized the importance of compliance for companies raising capital via Regulation Crowdfunding.
He introduced carfiling.com, a tool designed to simplify annual reporting for entrepreneurs.

San Diego Tempeh Featured Among New Impact Offerings - April 20, 2026

Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a list of all the new investment offerings added to FINRA-registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. We focus on and list first those with social impact and underrepresented founders. We also add other newly launched offerings that may be of interest to our community. We’ll share four separate lists:

Impact offerings determined by our proprietary analysis.
Offerings with minority founders.
Deals with women founders.
Other new offerings added during the week.

Sometimes, it takes weeks for our source to determine that a company has a social impact, a woman, or a minority founder. When we discover an offering qualifies for our list, even if it is no longer new, we will include it. See the lists below.

We’re Officially a Substack Bestseller—Because of You

Today, I’m excited to share a milestone that means a lot to me: Superpowers for Good has officially earned Substack’s Bestseller badge.

That means more than 100 readers have chosen to become Impact Members (paid subscribers).

I’m grateful for that recognition, of course. It’s a meaningful signal on the platform. It adds a little visible credibility. It says something important to anyone discovering our work for the first time.

But what matters to me far more than the badge is what it represents.

It represents trust.

Substack put it beautifully in the note they sent: Few things express trust in media better than a paid subscription. I think that’s exactly right.

To everyone who has chosen to become an Impact Member, thank you. Your support does more than help pay for this work. It validates the mission. It says that stories about impact, community, and investing with purpose matter. It says that shining a light on people using business and capital to do good in the world is worth supporting.

And to our free subscribers, thank you, too.

This Earth Day, Don’t Stop at Habits. Fund Climate Solutions.

Today is Earth Day.

That matters more this year, not because the calendar says so, but because the evidence keeps mounting around us. The World Meteorological Organization says 2015 through 2025 were the hottest 11 years ever recorded. It says 2025 was the second or third hottest year on record, at about 1.43°C above the 1850–1900 average, and that extreme weather last year affected millions of people and caused billions of dollars in losses. None of that is abstract anymore. We can see the damage. We can feel it.

So yes, recycle. Use less. Waste less. Drive less. All of that matters.

But Earth Day should also remind us of something else: our personal habits, while important, are not the only lever we have.

In fact, they may not even be the most powerful lever.

We can only recycle 100 percent of the plastic we buy. We can only avoid buying 100 percent of the plastic we would have purchased. Those choices matter morally. They matter culturally. But they do not scale the way capital does.

Investment does.

A Small Invitation: Help Us Build SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100™

Over the past few years, you’ve helped us build something special.

The SuperCrowd community has grown into a vibrant ecosystem of founders, investors, ecosystem leaders and advocates who believe that capital can be a force for good. Together, we’ve helped spotlight entrepreneurs, amplify opportunities for impact investing and bring visibility to innovative companies building a better future.

Now we’re preparing something bigger.

In August 2026, we’ll host SuperCrowd26 featuring PurposeBuilt100, a three-day televised event focused on the future of impact capital formation and the entrepreneurs leading the way. The event will bring together founders, investors and ecosystem leaders—and culminate in the PurposeBuilt100 Showcase, recognizing 100 fast-growing, purpose-driven companies.

Our goal is simple: shine a bright spotlight on companies proving that purpose and growth can go hand in hand.

To make this possible, we’re beginning early conversations with organizations that might want to stand alongside the movement as sponsors.

If you’d like to learn more, we’ve created a simple page outlining the opportunity and sharing our preliminary sponsor deck.

Take a look here: sponsor.SuperCrowd26.com

Please think of this not as a hard pitch, but as an invitation to explore the idea.

The Real AI Economy Will Be Built by Impact Entrepreneurs

The headlines this week have been hard to miss: layoffs in tech, executives talking about efficiency, and artificial intelligence increasingly cited as a reason jobs are disappearing. Challenger, Gray & Christmas says technology companies announced 52,050 job cuts in the first quarter of 2026, the highest first-quarter total for the sector since 2023. In March alone, AI was the leading reason companies gave for layoffs, with 15,341 announced cuts tied to AI, or 25 percent of all cuts that month.

That is real news. But it is not the whole story.

If you only read the layoff headlines, you might conclude that AI is mainly a machine for replacing people. I think that gets the story backward. At the biggest companies, AI may indeed be used first as a cost-cutting tool. Large organizations under pressure to keep growing profits often reach for the lever they know best: reducing headcount. But outside the bubble of big tech, in the world where most Americans actually live and work, AI is more likely to be an enabling technology than a job-destroying one. The real AI economy will not be built primarily by the companies cutting jobs to fund bigger infrastructure budgets. It will be built by entrepreneurs using AI to make small and midsize businesses more capable, more competitive, and more impactful.

PurposeBuilt100™: The Recruiting Advantage of Purpose and Growth

In every job market—hot or cold—one thing never changes: attracting the best people is hard.

Even today, when hiring is a little easier than it has been in recent years, the most talented, mission-driven professionals still have choices. They want meaningful work. They want career growth. And increasingly, they want proof that a company is both values-driven and thriving.

That’s why we created PurposeBuilt100™.

PurposeBuilt100 recognizes the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America, highlighting organizations that combine measurable impact with strong, sustained revenue growth.

This recognition is more than a trophy. It’s a signal.

When a company earns a place in the PurposeBuilt100, it communicates something powerful to prospective employees, investors, and partners:

This is a place where purpose and performance coexist.

In our experience covering thousands of impact-driven founders through Superpowers for Good, the companies that attract exceptional talent consistently demonstrate two things:

Authentic mission alignment — people believe the work matters.
Real business momentum — people believe their careers will grow there.

Too often, candidates must choose between these. PurposeBuilt100 companies prove they don’t have to.

Great Companies Aren’t Built Alone

Great companies are never built by founders alone.

Behind every growing company is a team that showed up early, stayed late, solved problems no one anticipated, and believed in the mission when success was far from guaranteed.

That’s why we created the PurposeBuilt100™ Showcase.

PurposeBuilt100 recognizes the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America, celebrating not just growth, but the people and culture that made that growth possible. The companies selected will be featured during the televised PurposeBuilt100 Showcase at SuperCrowd26 (August 25–27, 2026) and profiled in a beautifully produced hardcover book distributed to founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders.

What the Inc. 5000 Can’t Tell Us About Purpose-Driven Growth

Each year, thousands of entrepreneurs wait eagerly to see whether their companies will appear on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies, published by Inc. magazine.

For founders, making the list is more than a vanity milestone. It signals credibility. It tells investors, customers, and partners that a company isn’t just promising growth—it has delivered it. For many companies, appearing on the Inc. 5000 becomes a badge of honor that helps attract talent, customers, and capital.

There’s a good reason the list has become one of the most respected recognitions in American entrepreneurship. It highlights what every founder ultimately strives for: real growth built through execution.

But there’s something the Inc. 5000 can’t tell us.

It can’t tell us which of those companies are building a better world.

When ‘Safe’ Feels Risky: Rethinking Portfolios in an Unstable World

A lot has happened in the past 28 days, since I wrote: “Preparing for the Next Bear Market—Using, Not Avoiding, Regulated Investment Crowdfunding.”

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen 6.7%.

On a $100,000 portfolio, that’s a $6,700 decline.

That’s not theoretical. That’s real money—gone in a month.

And yet, we continue to describe public equities as “safe.”

They aren’t. They are familiar.

The Shock We Didn’t Price In

What triggered the recent decline?

Not earnings reports.
Not interest rate changes.
Not a predictable economic indicator.

Instead, markets reacted to geopolitical conflict—specifically, a sudden and surprising war with Iran and the growing risk of extended regional instability.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth:

Conflicts like this are rarely resolved as quickly as leaders promise.

We’ve seen this before. Wars that begin with expectations of swift resolution often stretch into years. Sometimes decades. The ripple effects—especially when energy infrastructure, shipping lanes, or regional alliances are involved—can reshape the global economy in ways few anticipate at the outset.

For investors, that introduces a category of risk that is both profound and unavoidable.

PurposeBuilt100™ Is Our Boldest Initiative Yet to Help Capital Flow Faster to Purpose-Driven Businesses

Most of our work has one goal: helping more capital flow to businesses that are building really social and environmental value.

That has guided the work we do at Superpowers for Good and across the broader SuperCrowd ecosystem for years. We feature founders. We spotlight offerings. We host live pitches. We educate investors. We build community among entrepreneurs, investors, judges, advisors, and ecosystem builders. In our 2025 Impact Report, we estimated that this work helped catalyze roughly $500,000 in capital while reaching thousands through education and featuring 69 issuers across the year.

But as important as all of that is, I’ve come to believe something even more strongly:

Founders do not need more noise. They need more credibility.

Capital rarely moves on inspiration alone. It moves when investors, partners, customers, and other market participants see a company as real, growing, disciplined, and worth believing in. That is especially true for purpose-driven companies. Too often, they are asked to prove not only that their mission matters, but that their businesses are durable, scalable, and investable.

That is why we created PurposeBuilt100™.

PurposeBuilt100™ is designed to recognize the 100 fastest-growing purpose-driven companies in America through a disciplined review of five-year revenue growth. It is not a popularity contest. It is not a vague “good company” award. It is designed to become a meaningful market signal—one that says this company is building with purpose and proving it with growth.

He shares his mission to empower minority communities to build generational wealth through entrepreneurship.

Devin Thorpe Featured on The TAGLine Podcast (Powered by The Aebli Group): The Blueprint for Impact Investing—Resilience, Returns & the Future of Crowdfunding

Forget everything you think you know about crowdfunding. Justin Starbird sits down with Devin Thorpe—founder of Superpowers for Good and former Forbes contributor—for a candid conversation on what holds investors back, his practical “two-screen” process for evaluating impact deals (beyond the mission), the one trait he consistently sees in successful founders after interviewing 1,000+, and why recognizing profitable, high-impact companies (including the future of PurposeBuilt100™) matters for growing the market. If you’re a founder considering a Reg CF raise, an investor seeking meaningful returns, or simply curious about democratizing capital, this is a must-listen—press play and hear Devin’s unfiltered take on aligning your values with your wallet.

The Pragmatic Moonshot: Why I Sold My Car for One More Month of Runway

“The ship is going down. Save yourself.”

That is what I told our intern back in 2019. I was a solo founder bootstrapping a deep tech biotech company, and I was nearly out of cash.

Devin Thorpe often asks changemakers on this platform to name their superpower. If I had to distill mine, it is relentless resilience. When you are building something difficult, you inevitably hit a wall where you have to decide how committed you really are.

For me, that moment arrived when I looked at my car.

Eric Bennett, Founder and CEO of Frontier Bio, tissue engineering pioneer

My Mazda RX-8 was worth about one more month of runway.

After finding a buyer, I took the scenic route toward the drop-off, weighing the risk and mapping out the next 30 days. Before stepping out of the driver’s seat, I remember the internal monologue vividly: Am I really going to sell my car? Well, what is the alternative? I either buy myself thirty more days to figure it out, or I fold today, walk away, and watch the entire vision die right here. Screw that.

I stepped out of the car. “One condition,” I told the buyer. “I’ll need a ride to my lab.”

At the time, Frontier Bio was still very early, but I was already proving that the technology had practical potential.

Why the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch Is Better Than Shark Tank for Real Investors

On Tuesday, March 17, 2026, at 8:00 PM Eastern / 5:00 PM Pacific, four carefully selected companies will pitch live on Superpowers for Good Live Pitch, a nationally televised event airing on the e360tv Network and available on Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and other smart TV platforms. At the top of this post, we’ll include the player so you can return here and watch the event live.

And that matters.

Because this isn’t just another pitch show built for entertainment.

This is a live, interactive, participatory event designed for people who want more than polished soundbites and performative reactions from celebrity investors. It is designed for people who actually care about discovering promising companies, understanding the founders, asking hard questions, and, if they choose, investing their own money.

That’s what makes the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch different.

How Sawyer Products Transforms Lives With Simple, Affordable Clean Water Solutions

Sawyer’s filters, derived from kidney dialysis technology, offer clean water for as little as $0.30 per person.

Kurt’s bold “Why not?” mindset helped make Sawyer a leader in disaster relief and global health.
Sawyer is scaling to impact 40 million lives annually, inviting others to support their mission.

Preparing for the Next Bear Market — Using, Not Avoiding, Regulated Investment Crowdfunding

I’ve been reading 1929 by Andrew Ross Sorkin. The parallels between today’s high-flying markets and the late 1920s are unsettling.

Meanwhile, my friend Michael Shuman recently wrote about the economic storm he believes is forming on the horizon. He points to trade wars, a weakening dollar, potential Fed interference, stock market overvaluation, and technological job displacement.

We may quibble about timing, but serious thinkers are clearly concerned. I am too!

Michael offered great counsel to help communities prepare for the impact of a major recession. My goal today is to explain what I’m doing to prepare my portfolio for this possibility in hopes you may take something from it that will help you prepare.

One fact stands out:

The U.S. economy has not experienced an official recession since 2008–09.

That’s nearly 17 years. For those too young to appreciate this, there hasn’t been an economic expansion this long before in my lifetime!

More importantly for my world, Regulation Crowdfunding has never been tested by a true recession. The JOBS Act was signed in 2012. Reg CF went live in 2016. The pandemic contraction was sharp but immediately flooded with liquidity.

We do not have recession performance data for this asset class.

So how do we prepare?

Here is what I am doing personally—and why.

Black History Comes Alive Through Milton Bowens’s Art

tl;dr:

Milton Bowens uses art to connect Black history with storytelling, inspired by filmmakers Ken Burns and Spike Lee.
He explained the origins and significance of Black History Month, marking its 100th anniversary this year.
Milton shared his journey from a young graffiti artist in Oakland to a celebrated fine artist.
His superpower, believing in oneself, helped him turn personal challenges into opportunities for growth.
Milton creates engaging educational tools, like his Black history alphabet series, to spark meaningful conversations.

Show Me the Numbers

Transparency isn’t optional in crowdfunding—it’s essential.

Today at noon Eastern/9:00 AM Pacific, I’m hosting the SuperCrowdHour webinar on one of the most misunderstood—and most critical—topics in regulated investment crowdfunding:

Financial statements.

You can watch live (or later via replay) right here in this post—or on the e360tv Network via Roku or Amazon Fire TV. If you’ve got the app on your Smart TV, you can literally watch from your recliner. Bowl of popcorn optional.

Why This Topic Matters So Much

What the Epstein Files Have Taught Me About Judgment, Power, and Due Diligence

In the spring of 2019, I hosted Bill Gates on my show. For years, I’ve referenced that interview as a high-water mark—because it was. If you run an interview show long enough, there are a few moments that feel like you’ve climbed a mountain and finally gotten to take in the view.

But time has a way of changing what a view looks like.

Over the past few weeks, as new tranches of “Epstein files” have been released and the news cycle has churned through the names inside them, I’ve found myself thinking about what I owe my community in terms of clarity, context, and simple honesty about how my own perspective has shifted.

This post is my attempt to “clear the air”—not by relitigating every headline, and not by implying things that haven’t been proven, but by naming what seems true, what seems important, and what I’ve learned.

The Fashion Show That Almost Didn’t Happen

If you do one thing with this post, click the video player at the top and watch the whole fashion show. It’s the kind of segment that surprises you—in the best way—because it doesn’t feel like “a fashion add-on.” It feels like a climate solutions showcase told through fabric, farming, design choices, and entrepreneurship.

SuperGreen Live has always been about practical pathways to a healthier planet—innovations, investment, stewardship, and momentum. But this… this was different. A sustainable fashion show at a climate-and-crowdfunding event is not the obvious move. I’ll be honest: I was skeptical we could pull it off. It felt ambitious, logistically risky, and frankly a little “out there.”

And then it happened.

And it worked.

Not perfectly—because nothing live ever is—but rather well in the ways that matter. It was engaging. It was substantive. It felt fresh. I credit Alan Tratner for having the vision and Patricia Langan for being the key to execution.

The Crowd Has Spoken: In Reg CF, Impact Isn’t a “Tax”—It’s a Competitive Advantage

Kingscrowd just released its annual report and, as part of it, published a list of the biggest Regulation Crowdfunding raises of 2025. The headline statistic alone is impressive: 101 raises hit $1 million or more, and 9 raises effectively maxed out the $5 million limit (within $50k).

But what really grabbed my attention wasn’t just the size of the raises.

It was the pattern.

When you look at the biggest raises of the year, social impact shows up again and again—not as a concession founders make to “do good,” but as a value that the crowd clearly rewards. That matters, because in traditional venture capital circles, impact is too often treated like a tradeoff: the feel-good thing you do instead of optimizing returns.

The Kingscrowd list suggests something very different: the crowd often sees impact as a virtue—something that increases confidence, loyalty, and willingness to invest.

Six of the Biggest Raises Carry Real, Demonstrable Social Impact

From Kingscrowd’s top raises list, at least six of the “very top” offerings have clear social impact:

RISE Robotics (clean industrial innovation)
TerraCycle (circular economy and waste reduction)
Mivium (cleaner, more efficient semiconductors)
Pirouette Medical / Pharma (healthcare innovation)
Conexeu Sciences (biotech with human health implications)
Timeplast (plastic pollution solution)

Three of the Top Four Raises Had Meaningful Superpowers for Good Ties

Here’s the other pattern that’s hard to ignore—especially from where I sit.

Three of the top four raises engaged meaningfully with Superpowers for Good and the SuperCrowd:

RISE Robotics — Kingscrowd ranked RISE Robotics as the #1 raise. RISE won the Superpowers for Good Live Pitch Judges’ Award in June 2025, and the CEO later appeared on the Superpowers for Good show.
TerraCycle — Kingscrowd ranked TerraCycle #2. CEO Tom Szaky appeared as a guest on Superpowers for Good and spoke at SuperGreen Live. TerraCycle has built a global business around eliminating waste and scaling reuse and recycling solutions—and proved that this mission can attract serious investor demand.
Mivium — Kingscrowd ranked Mivium #4. CEO Eric Tsai appeared on Superpowers for Good, sharing how Mivium’s work with gallium nitride can reduce energy consumption and avoid toxic production inputs common in traditional semiconductor manufacturing.

How Mission-Driven Focus Propelled Health Care Originals to Raise $3.8 Million

tl;dr:

Health Care Originals raised $3.8 million, including $1.1 million through a crowdfunding campaign.
The company acquired Imago Rehab, a startup developing robotic gloves for stroke rehabilitation.
Sharon outlined how mission-driven innovation drives their impact-focused healthcare solutions.
Sharon’s superpower, resilience, has been key to overcoming challenges and driving the company forward.
Health Care Originals integrates AI, hardware, and therapy to deliver transformative healthcare solutions.

Health Injustice: Why Education Is the Therapy We’ve Been Missing

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in healthcare is the most shocking and inhumane.”

Prem Saharasnam, MD: Board-certified endocrinologist and founder of My Diabetes Tutor, advancing rural health equity through diabetes care.

That quote has followed me for years because I’ve lived it alongside my patients.

I’m an endocrinologist. I’ve spent two decades working with people who are doing their best to manage diabetes while juggling everything else life throws at them: jobs, children, financial stress, lack of transportation, unstable access to healthy food, language barriers, and too often, a healthcare system that expects them to figure it all out on their own.

The story of My Diabetes Tutor didn’t start in a boardroom or a pitch deck. It started in California’s Central Valley.

If you know the Central Valley, you know it’s beautiful, hard-working, and underserved. It’s a place where people show up for their families and their communities, even when the resources don’t show up for them.

I built a practice there and ended up consulting more than 35,000 patients over time. And what I learned quickly was this: If I wanted my patients to succeed, the best thing I could give them wasn’t another medication. It was education.

By 2018, I had two full-time diabetes educators on staff. The impact wasn’t subtle. When patients truly understand what’s happening in their bodies, what their numbers mean, and how to respond without fear or confusion, everything changes.

Start with Just $10: How Anyone Can Become an Impact Investor (Today on SuperCrowdHour)

The big idea: tiny investments are hard… which is why this is special

Most platforms set minimums around $100 because every investor adds real administrative cost—especially with loans that require many monthly payments. That math makes very small investments tough to offer at scale.

But a couple of platforms have made $10 investing possible anyway—making impact crowdfunding accessible to essentially anyone with a bank account.

Two places you can start with $10

In today’s session, I’ll walk through how $10 investing works on platforms that make it practical:

Why Day 1 matters

Day 1 is where the story begins.

We open with a bold premise:

The climate crisis is real, it’s human-driven, and government funding alone will not get us where we need to go. That may sound daunting—but it’s also incredibly empowering. Because what comes next is possibility.

Throughout the day, you’ll meet founders, investors, innovators, media leaders, and climate champions who are proving that solutions already exist—and more are being built right now.

This is the day that sets the tone, frames the opportunity, and invites you into the movement.

Beyond the Rooftop: Why Climate Investing Is Now a National Security Issue

Two energy systems. Two different futures. Our choice.

Most of us understand the first step of climate action: use less fossil energy.

Drive less (or drive electric).
Electrify your home.
Insulate and air-seal.
Install solar (if you can).

That’s all essential. But today’s headlines make something else painfully clear:

If we want fewer “oil temptations” on the world stage, we also need to fund the alternatives—at scale—beyond our own roofs.

Venezuela is a flashing red warning light

This week, President Trump ordered a raid that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who was taken to New York to face charges. Reports indicate that at least 40 people died in the operation.

At the same time, Trump has openly discussed U.S. intentions to “partake” in Venezuela’s oil industry. And yes—Venezuela’s reserves are enormous, often cited at around ~300 billion barrels—the world’s largest.

Whatever someone thinks about Maduro, the pattern here is the point:

When oil remains strategically central, oil-rich countries become targets—politically, economically, and sometimes militarily.

So here’s the thesis of this post:

Every incremental investment that accelerates clean energy deployment marginally reduces future oil demand—and marginally reduces the geopolitical incentive to seize oil.

It’s not the only reason to invest in climate solutions. But it’s becoming one of the most urgent.

Transforming Trash into Treasure: The Profitable Economics of Zero Waste

tl;dr:

TerraCycle creates supply chains for hard-to-recycle waste by getting stakeholders to fund the cost gap.
Recycling is an economic challenge because items are only recycled locally if they generate profit.
Tom recently raised $5 million via Regulation Crowdfunding by demonstrating proven growth and consistent dividends.
Purpose-driven business models can drive better economic fundamentals like lower costs and government support.
Tom’s superpower is rallying people around a vision by starting with a beautiful, impactful idea.

SuperGreen Live, a global virtual event focused on accelerating real-world climate solutions, today announced an expanded lineup for its capital-raising and climate action programming, headlined by Peng-Sang Cau, Director of Siemens for Startups at Siemens Digital Industries Software.

She will be joined by Jason Fishman, Richard Robinette, and Sam Daley-Harris, bringing together expertise in startup growth, compliant capital formation, and grassroots climate advocacy.

SuperGreen Live will take place January 22–24, 2026, streaming globally on Regen Media TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and other smart TV devices via the e360tv Network, which reaches 1.8 million monthly viewers worldwide. The event is free to watch globally, with optional VIP access available for deeper engagement.

Hosted by Green2Gold, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation, SuperGreen Live connects founders, investors, advocates, and ecosystem builders to explore how climate solutions move from ideas to scaled impact.

A Focus on Capital, Execution, and Climate Action

This segment of SuperGreen Live will be hosted by Professor Alan Tratner, a long-time educator, climate advocate, and organizer whose work bridges academic insight and practical action.

“Solving the climate crisis requires more than awareness—it requires capital, coordination, and courage,” said Professor Alan Tratner, host at SuperGreen Live, who also helped organize the first Earth Day in 1970. “This program brings together people who understand how change actually happens: through disciplined fundraising, smart legal structures, and sustained civic engagement. That combination is essential if we’re serious about progress.”

Year in Review: Women & Minority-Led Reg CF Campaigns in 2025

Why 2025 Was a Breakout Year for Diverse Founders in Reg CF

Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) has quietly become one of the most important capital pathways for underrepresented founders in the U.S.:

Inclusive by design: Low minimums allow everyday investors to participate, increasing access for founders who lack traditional VC networks.
Lower check sizes, broader reach: Founders can raise meaningful capital ($250k–$5M) without giving up board seats or control.
Stronger alignment with diverse customer bases: Women and minority founders often build for communities that are themselves under‑served; Reg CF lets those communities become early investors.

By 2025, a few major forces converged:

Post‑$5M cap expansion maturing. The 2021 increase of the Reg CF cap to $5M had several years to play out. By 2025, repeat founders and professional angels increasingly used Reg CF as part of their funding stack.
FINRA portal ecosystem consolidation. A handful of platforms emerged as dominant, with better tooling for compliance, marketing, and analytics.
Intentional DEI programs. Some portals and accelerators launched women- and minority‑focused cohorts, “launch weeks,” and fee discounts.
Retail investor familiarity. More mainstream coverage of equity crowdfunding in 2023–2024 made 2025 the first year where many non‑crypto retail investors saw it as “normal.”

The result: 2025 was the strongest year yet for women and minority-led Reg CF campaigns in terms of volume, dollar amounts, and investor participation.

Climate Change Is the Defining Challenge of Our Time—and We Can Still Choose the Outcome

Support the SuperCrowd's Climate Work

Climate change is not a distant threat or an abstract concern for future generations. It is the defining challenge of our time—shaping health, food systems, energy, housing, migration, and economic stability right now. The question before us is no longer whether change is coming, but whether we will move quickly enough to shape it for good.

That’s why we’re building SuperGreen Live.

SuperGreen Live is designed to do something very specific—and very urgent: catalyze real climate solutions by bringing together founders, investors, technologists, artists, policymakers, and everyday people who care deeply about the future we are leaving behind. Not to talk about the problem endlessly, but to spotlight solutions, accelerate capital, and inspire action at scale.

We believe solutions already exist. What’s missing is speed, visibility, and coordination.

SuperGreen Live exists to close that gap.

This work is being led in partnership with Green2Gold, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing climate solutions, and The Super Crowd, Inc., a public benefit corporation focused on mobilizing capital for impact. Donations made to Green2Gold to support SuperGreen Live will be shared substantially with The Super Crowd, Inc. to fund the production, outreach, and infrastructure required to make this event successful.

These donations are tax-deductible, subject to standard rules.

2025 Impact Report: Building the Impact Crowdfunding Ecosystem

Impact matters to me because capital changes lives—and because “good intentions” aren’t the same thing as results. This report is my attempt to document and estimate the real-world impact of our work in 2025.

I’m calling this a Foundational Edition for a simple reason: while we have strong visibility into what we published and what we produced, we have not yet built the measurement systems needed to reliably track what happened because we produced it. Still, it’s important to start. Transparency beats perfection.

One more theme threads through everything below: we are deliberately expanding the community—investors, founders, intermediaries, ecosystem builders, advisors, judges, sponsors, and advocates—because a bigger, more connected ecosystem is itself a form of impact.

Note that companies raising capital do not pay to appear on the Superpowers for Good show, do not pay to apply to pitch and don’t pay to pitch if selected. Issuers do not pay to be listed in our Monday posts. Issuers cannot pay to be selected as Devin’s Impact Pick of the Week. While we have affordable advertising packages available, most issuer exposure is provided for free, supported by our sponsors.

How We Measure Impact in This Report

Why measurement matters

I believe in measuring real impact. At the same time, I haven’t yet implemented the mechanisms needed to directly attribute investments, revenue, or downstream outcomes to our content and events. This report is the bridge between “we think we help” and “we can prove it.”

How Fashion and Community Empowerment Intersect at GGirls Closet

tl;dr:

GGirls Closet LLC combines sustainability and community impact by repurposing clothing to reduce landfill waste.
CEO Patricia Gillmore partners with schools and nonprofits, helping them generate revenue through consignment programs.
Patricia’s recent crowdfunding campaign raised funds to expand operations and increase community impact.
She shared how her superpower of “real connection” drives her success through collaboration and relationship-building.
Patricia plans to franchise GGirls Closet to bring her mission of empowerment and sustainability to more communities.

Beyond Profit: A Deep Dive into the $4.9 Million Week in Regulated Impact Crowdfunding

In the ever-evolving landscape of modern finance, a powerful and transformative movement is gaining unprecedented momentum. The traditional dichotomy of investing for profit versus donating for purpose is collapsing. In its place rises a new paradigm: investing for both. This is the world of Regulated Impact Crowdfunding, a democratized financial ecosystem where everyday individuals can deploy their capital not just in pursuit of financial returns, but to actively fuel companies solving our world’s most pressing challenges.

This past week alone, the market has spoken with a resounding voice, channeling over $4,921,935 into a diverse cohort of impact-driven enterprises. These are not abstract venture capital deals happening behind closed doors. These are transparent, legally structured investment opportunities, open to the public, that have successfully captured the imagination and the wallets of thousands of citizen investors.

2025 Year in Review: The Rise of Main Street and Mission-Driven Social Impact Offerings

The year 2025 will be remembered as a period of profound transformation in the investment landscape. As global economic conditions began to find a steadier footing after a tumultuous few years, a powerful current of change that had been building for a decade finally broke through into the mainstream. This was the year that the line between profit and purpose didn’t just blur; it was actively and enthusiastically erased by a new generation of entrepreneurs and investors. This movement is powered by a simple yet revolutionary idea: that the greatest financial returns can be intrinsically linked to the creation of positive social and environmental outcomes.

Welcome to the world of Social Impact Offerings (SIOs)—a democratized, technology-driven evolution of investing that is channeling billions of dollars into ventures that are not only innovative but also intentional. The global crowdfunding market, a key engine of this movement, is projected to grow from $16.6 billion in 2025 to over $18.5 billion in 2026, demonstrating a powerful shift toward more inclusive and accessible funding models.

Christmas, Trust, and the Capital We Choose to Deploy

Tomorrow morning, a lot of us will do a familiar thing: we’ll give a gift.

Some will be small. Some will be extravagant. Some will be last-minute. Some will be handmade and perfect in a way money can’t touch. But almost every meaningful gift has something in common: it’s an act of trust.

You buy a book you think someone will love. You pick out the sweater in the right color. You ship a package a little late and hope it arrives anyway. You plan a surprise, write a note, wrap it carefully. And then you hand it over—without any guarantee of how it will be received or what it will mean a week from now.

That’s not charity. That’s faith-infused optimism.

And that’s why I can’t help thinking about impact crowdfunding on Christmas Eve.
