Lifting New Mexico Communities
NMIIC launched in 2016 as a Pilot Project funder collaboration dedicated to catalyzing and scaling impact investing in New Mexico following a series of funder surveys and roundtable discussions. During the 18-month Pilot Project Phase (2016 Oct – 2018 March) supported by a dozen local, regional and national funders, over $6 million was invested in 11 organizations by NMIIC partners with direct screening and due diligence support. $2.2 million was deployed directly by NMIIC members, with an additional $4.1M facilitated by NMIIC activities. The collaborative completed an evaluation of the pilot phase and launched the second phase of the place-based impact investing collaboration in May 2019 to further explore impact investing collaboration strategies in support of its mission - creating healthy, equitable, sustainable and economically vibrant communities within New Mexico. NMIIC’s place-based impact investing collaboration model was featured in Urban Institute report and practitioner brief.
Since inception, NMIIC members have deployed $16 million into thirteen projects and funds across the state with NMIIC support.
