About Inspire Access
Inspire Access is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that aims to close the gender and racial investment gap by investing philanthropic dollars into funds and companies led by women and people of color founders who have historically lacked access to investment capital. The Inspire Access team has extensive experience in investing in underrepresented-led entrepreneurs and has seen the tremendous impact that more equitable funding can have.

We aim to unlock nearly $200B in inactive Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) to narrow the investment gap, driving equity in the business world. Inspire Access enables DAFs to direct investments in for-profit companies of the donor's choice, with returns flowing back to their charitable entities for greater impact.
