I’m not a financial advisor; nothing I write in Superpowers for Good should be considered investment advice. You should seek appropriate counsel before making investment decisions.

Each Friday, I’ll be sharing my new book, How to Make Money with Impact Crowdfunding, exclusively with the “Impact Members of the SuperCrowd” (our paying subscribers). You can read last week’s chapter here.


Impact Crowdfunding happens at the intersection of regulated investment crowdfunding and impact investing. This is where ordinary investors get to participate.

Have Your Cake and Eat it Too

The best thing about impact crowdfunding is that it is a bit like having your cake and eating it, too. You can use your money to support a cause or mission you care about and potentially get the money back with interest or appreciation.

In Chapter 2, we discussed the magic of impact investing and how you can use your money for impact while earning a financial return. In this chapter, we’ll dig further into the ways you can use RIC to become an impact investor.

Each week, in the Superpowers for Good newsletter (http://superpowers4good.com), my colleague Chandan Saha and I share a list of the impact crowdfunding offerings that are newly listed. We break down the list into four categories of impact. Here they are:

  • Social Impact

  • Minority Founders

  • Women Founders

  • LGBTQ Founders

In this chapter, I’ll describe the impact of investing in each category.
