 Who We Are

OUR TEAM
Allan Benamer has extensive experience working as a web developer in the for-profit and non-profit sectors. He's old enough to remember carrying the Webmaster title for the California Administrative Office of the Courts and was also webmaster for the McGraw-Hill Companies. For the last five years, he was IT Director for New York's Coalition for the Homeless. He is also the blogger behind www.nonprofittechblog.org.

Jeff Tuller started his career in the very private sector, with nearly a decade at financial firms Bear Stearns and State Street Bank. In 2001 he made the leap of faith into the non-profit sector, beginning at the SIFEE Educational Foundation and most recently at The Atlantic Philanthropies. He recently supplemented his MS in Computer Science with an MPA from NYU's Wagner School for Public Service.

OUR MISSION
We are building the foundation for a true social capital marketplace. This is only possible through the measurement of both social good and the risk involved in its creation, asking for the cooperation of both those who create social good and those who invest in them.

OUR METHOD
We start with a simple premise: if the result of a non-profit’s efforts has value, then we should be able to see it.

There is no readily available market price for our sector’s outcomes like:

  • a child getting vaccinated
  • a community getting a library
  • a planet getting rid of its greenhouse gasses

but they are all nonetheless valuable. Capturing this value increases both transparency and accountability, which increases the power of both internal managers and external investors.
