Pump For Joy Featured Among New Impact Offerings - October 20, 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:
Impact offerings determined by our proprietary analysis.
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.

Today, the Future of Impact Crowdfunding Unfolds Live
Here’s why our community should gather around the (virtual) table today for the Crowdfunding Professional Association’s 2025 Regulated Investment Crowdfunding Summit—and why we’ve made it effortless to watch. We’ve embedded the live YouTube stream at the top of this post, so you can keep the program open all day in your inbox or browser. Prefer the living-room experience? You can also tune in on e360tv. The entire day is focused on regulated investment crowdfunding, which makes it squarely “home field” for SuperCrowd readers—founders, investors, ecosystem builders, and policy-watchers who care about capital that creates impact.
I’ll be on stage twice—moderating one panel and serving as a panelist on another—so you’ll see familiar faces. (Transparency note: The Super Crowd, Inc. is supporting the Summit as a sponsor, and I serve as a volunteer co-chair of the CfPA.) But I’d be urging you to watch even if I weren’t involved. The agenda packs a rare blend of market data, operator know-how, policy insight, and mission-driven practice into a single, continuous broadcast you can absorb with a cup of coffee and a notebook.
See the Great Companies We’re Considering at the October Impact Cherub Club Meeting
As we gear up for the 1:30 PM Eastern, October 28th, meeting of the Impact Cherub Club, we invite you to join us. The club meets to review impact investments that everyone is eligible to make and that virtually anyone can afford. We share responsibility for completing basic due diligence before making investments. While members are encouraged to invest in the Club’s picks, no one is required to invest.
The Club is open to all “Impact Members” of the SuperCrowd (our paying subscribers). I don’t touch the money members invest. They do so directly for their own accounts. We benefit from new members by the fresh perspectives they bring and our growing social impact. Please join us!
Next Meeting—October 28th, at 1:30 PM Eastern
At our next meeting on October 28th, at 1:30 PM Eastern/10:00 AM Pacific, consistent with our plans for future sessions, the agenda will have three items:
Diligence Reports
Post Mortem
Preliminary Consideration of New Candidate Investments
I’ll review those items in reverse order.
Boosting Transparency in Crowdfunding: A Key to Unlocking Market Growth
tl;dr:
Greg Burke highlights low compliance with annual reporting requirements in the regulated crowdfunding market.
Improved compliance fosters investor trust and market growth, benefiting entrepreneurs and diverse founders.
Greg’s research shows emphasizing regulatory risks can increase reporting compliance by 20%.
Crowdfunding platforms and third-party services can simplify compliance for resource-constrained entrepreneurs.
Greg’s superpower is making complex topics relatable by tailoring messages to his audience’s needs.
