Hello,

At CAF Venturesome our mission is to provide social enterprises and charities with the affordable, repayable finance they need to sustain and grow their impact. And, since 2002, we've being doing just that - connecting hundreds of social organisations with over 130 generous funders to make real social change happen.

We're delighted to be able to share our latest impact report with you. It provides an introduction to the world of social investment, details our commitment to delivering impact and highlights some amazing case studies from just a handful of the social organisations we work with each and every day.

We're extremely proud of what we have achieved since we launched back in 2002 and excited when we think about the possibilities for the future. We hope you find this impact report useful, engaging and, above all, inspiring.

If you're a social organisation looking for finance to help with cashflow or to fund your growth, or if you're a philanthropist looking to have more impact with your giving, we'd love to hear from you.

Best wishes,

CAF Venturesome Team

EIGHTEEN YEARS OF IMPACT

We've supported hundreds of social enterprises and charities across the UK and overseas. And our team's experience, specialist expertise and collaborative approach means that many of our clients come back to us time and time again.

"CAF Venturesome is one of the few funders Hubbub could turn to for investment funding for this project. Their team took the time to understand exactly what we were trying to acheive, they challenged assumptions and helped us refine our thinking and approach. As a result we have a stronger concept and will work with the CAF Venturesome team to ensure we deliver wider societal impact and financial return"

Trewin Restorick, CEO/Founder, Hubbub
