Buy Social Outcomes

Buying outcomes through the marketplace provides donors with a clear and simple way to broaden their access to social enterprises that share their strategic goals, be they local or far flung, large or small, community led or part of a global network. The marketplace delivers social outcomes, and the donor pays for actual results.

Social Impact is an asset class

Corporations, investors and governments are pouring historic amounts of money into social spending; more than $13 trillion in recent years.

That expense is not tied to ROI, and has widened a gap between growth in social spend and social progress.

Purchasing outcomes changes the game. Purchasers both de-risk their investments and can account for their impact.

Buying social impact units is the future of ESG

Private and public sector entities now are responsible for verifying impact by reporting standardized, validated data.

Purchasers in the market can buy specific outcomes based on impact field, type of intervention, people helped, and geography. These outcomes are delivered in the form of a Verified Impact Unit (VIU), with attributes specific to the desired program.
