Doppler Labs Featured Among New Impact Offerings - August 18, 2025
Each week, Superpowers for Good shares a list of new impact-related offerings added to FINRA-Registered crowdfunding portals and by broker-dealers. We’ll share four separate lists:

Offerings with minority founders.
Deals with women founders.
Those with LGBTQ founders.
Sometimes, it takes weeks for our source to determine that a company has a social impact, a woman, minority or LGBTQ 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.

Join Us at SuperCrowd25 — Aug 21–22
I’d love for you to be part of SuperCrowd25 this Thursday and Friday, August 21–22. We’ll be streaming free across e360tv and other platforms with two fast-paced days focused on how entrepreneurs and investors use impact crowdfunding to build stronger communities.
What can you expect? Conversations that go beyond buzzwords. You’ll hear practical, field-tested insights from leaders including Jonny Price (Wefunder), Rebecca Kacaba (DealMaker), Ron Miller (StartEngine), and longtime advocates like Jenny Kassan, Chris Miller, and Woodie Neiss—plus dozens of mission-driven founders. We’ll look at what’s working right now: how first-time founders are closing rounds, what due diligence looks like for values-aligned investors, and how communities are financing climate and local resilience projects.
A few sessions I’m excited about:
Crowdfunding Without Borders — lessons from founders reaching global audiences
Climate Capital: Crowdfunding a Greener Future — funding practical climate solutions
The Investor’s Playbook — repeatable steps for building a thoughtful impact portfolio
How Crowdfunding Saved the World — case studies of scrappy, community-powered wins
