The investment aims to help more students persist in their programs, earn degrees, and enter the workforce.

Yes we can support new moms. Two years ago we announced an historic expansion of support services for first time expectant mothers living in poverty, collaborating with Children & Families First, Social Finance and Longwood Foundation Inc. As your next governor, I look forward to increasing supports for all mothers to have healthy and thriving families statewide, increasing funding for home visiting nursing programs and creating new opportunities for families struggling to make it.

Today in Impact Entrepreneur, our Vice President of Investor Relations Jess Brooks explores how organizations are helping donors "get more bang for each philanthropic buck" using impact-first investing and other related approaches. "There’s a whole spectrum of ways to deploy capital between traditional investing and grantmaking . . .
