Making capital flow more equitably to underfunded and overlooked communities is a collective effort. 

Across Canada, there are major disparities in how capital flows and who gets funded—across all capital flows, from philanthropy to impact investing to venture capital—that leave equity-deserving groups behind. Yet, many capital deployers have difficulty determining what to do to address these gaps, or encounter issues in implementing lasting changes, even when the solutions seem clear. 

We go further, together.

It’s time to turn good intentions into actions. Through collective learning, transparency and accountability, and leveraging prototypes of emerging capital models, we can shift how capital flows to underfunded communities across Canada. Our Member Network brings together a group of leading institutions across all sectors, to work collaboratively to better integrate equity, diversity, and inclusion principles in their organization and in how they deploy capital.

Lead the movement for
more equitable and inclusive
capital flow across Canada.

Work with New Power Labs to make real progress on advancing
equity and inclusion, on a journey tailored to your capacity and needs.

A network working collaboratively to flow $500M to underinvested and underserved communities by 2030.

Our goal is ambitious. Our partners have agreed it’s also practical. Though it might be a drop in the bucket of impact and philanthropy capital flowing in Canada, we believe this is the tipping point that will lead to tangible outcomes.
