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.

Balance Sheets Made Simple—Even If You’ve Never Read One
Today is the day!
In just one hour, we’ll be live with July’s SuperCrowdHour webinar: Balance Sheets & Beyond: The Impact Investor’s Guide to Financials. You can watch it right here in the Superpowers for Good newsletter via the embedded livestream video player above.
Whether you’re a first-time impact investor or a seasoned pro who still gets a little overwhelmed by financials, this session is for you.
Join me, Devin Thorpe, founder of The Super Crowd, Inc., as I break down how to understand and evaluate financial statements as part of your due diligence process when investing via regulated investment crowdfunding (Reg CF).
This presentation is designed especially for people who feel like finance isn’t their native language. If you can shop online, you can understand financial statements. Seriously. It’s all about pattern recognition—not math.
We’ll keep things straightforward, practical, and impact-focused.
