BrightEdge is the innovation, impact investment and venture capital arm of the American Cancer Society. Today, our ACS Impact Venture Fund (AIVF) invests in for-profit, early-stage companies developing cutting-edge, cancer-focused therapeutics, diagnostics, devices, and technologies to fuel and accelerate ACS’s mission of ending cancer as we know it, for everyone.
We are a nonprofit organization that aims to attack the wealth gaps in the United States while also ensuring the retiring small business owners can leave a legacy behind with the jobs they have created in their communities.
The Spencer Foundation has a long-standing commitment to support research on the improvement of education and on the well-being of children and families. We seek to further our mission impact by aligning our investment objectives with the Foundation’s commitments and values. To this end, we use reasonable efforts to reduce or avoid holdings in sectors or investments that harm children. Additionally, our investment portfolio considers our responsibility to contribute to greater equity and diversity in our society, and the overall health and well-being of the planet, our institutions, families, and communities. We seek to work with organizations who reflect and demonstrate our values.
