The barriers to everyone in America having a fair shot at living their healthiest life are too great to address through grantmaking alone.
For decades, we’ve worked to change systems and policies in order to make the healthy choice the easier choice, especially for those facing the greatest obstacles to good health. Another approach is to shift capital markets—and we can do that through impact investing. Impact investing can create both bottom-line financial returns for investors and improve health, well-being and equity through investments in the community finance system.
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) has reaffirmed its commitment to impact investing through a $200 million allocation for social investments and by appointing Kimberlee Cornett as director of impact investments to lead this strategy.
As part of the $200 million effort, RWJF has already completed several impact investments to respond to the COVID-19 crisis and to support the community development finance system.
