Portfolio
Mission Throttle invests in mission-driven organizations that seek to use market-based strategies to address social and environmental challenges.
Mission Throttle has been working to advance innovation in philanthropy since 2009. In the decade since the company’s formation, Mission Throttle has evolved from a startup, dedicated to supporting innovative fundraising tools and impact investing, to that and more. In 2013, Mission Throttle launched its advisory practice, recruiting a group of talented consultants to promote positive change in the mission-driven sector. The practice engaged with more than 40 mission-driven organizations to create sustainability, innovation, earned revenue and ultimately, culture change before spinning off in 2019.
In addition to our portfolio of advisory engagements and investments, we have accelerated positive change in the community through strategic partnerships and sponsorships. Since its inception in 2009, Mission Throttle has invested over $5 million into research, platforms and tools that advances philanthropic innovation and expands social capital to mission-driven organizations.
