Debt capital investments... Also generate social returns. In addition, they offer short-term financial returns on a fully redeemable note at maturity.

SOCIAL IMPACT RETURNS
Provide investors and contributors with a sense of meaning and accomplishment in knowing their resources are being used in a charitable, but business-like fashion, to finance creative community solutions to serious social and economic challenges facing Florida's most disadvantaged communities, families and future generations of children.
All contributions also offer tax deductibility.
FINANCIAL RETURNS
Provide interest earnings (like any other investment) to socially concerned individual supporters of the Loan Fund. Earnings may not be as high as with other forms or types of investments, but they come with the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping to build communities and advance social justice in Florida's poorest areas.
Depending upon the type of investment, an investor can experience a reasonably modest and safe financial return through the Loan Fund of up to 2-3%.
