Racial Justice

Public statements in support of racial justice are easy; ensuring that People of Color are hired, paid, promoted, and retained equitably is less so.

In May of 2020, the world witnessed the horrific murder of George Floyd, forcing many to confront and challenge systemic racism within our lives. Not only did this event force a re-evaluation of our most fundamental beliefs and institutions, but it also became a catalyst for change within American society.

In this moment of reflection, many companies have realized that advancing racial justice and diversity within their organizations can improve employee wellbeing and belonging, while also driving measurable financial returns over time. Research indicates that companies with diverse teams offer better management, have stronger long-term growth prospects, and see improved share value.

Social Justice Funds empowers investors to harness their personal economic power to support racial justice while maximizing returns.
