This program is a part of our Impact Investing Programs Series from our 2016-17 PNY Core Curriculum:


Taking on impact investing often requires board approval. Yet impact investing is still quite new terrain for many board members. What’s the best way to engage board members so that they are supportive of the development of an impact investing approach that best suits your foundation’s mission? 

Join us for this program where board members share how impact investing unfolded at their foundations. Hear their thoughts on optimal board education and engagement processes, as well as how to help your board clarify its impact investing goals.

  • How are board members part of decision-making on impact investing at other foundations
  • How are foundation boards being educated on the topic - who are the internal champions, how are outside experts consulted, how is information presented, what data and information is shared
  • What questions do board members often want answered about impact investing
  • How can you set reasonable expectations for impact investing with your board
  • What’s the first conversation on impact investing peers in the field recommend you have with your board
