Impact Invest Her is a private community of female angel investors who learn together and work collaboratively to support female-led, mission-driven startups.
we are a collective of better angels
THE PROBLEM
the female angel perspective is missing
Venture Capital is a system by which old, white men invest in companies started by young, white men.
In fact, less than 3% of all venture capital funding goes to women-run or women-founded companies.
Impact Invest Her is dedicated to changing that narrative.
OUR INVITATION
ladies, it’s time we took our seats at the table
We need to get comfortable talking about money, growing our wealth in values-based ways and using our influence to help female entrepreneurs succeed.
What could be better than doing well by doing good?
OUR MISSION
amplify the work of women-run startups while empowering female angels to use their wealth for good.
OUR MEMBERSHIP

HOW IT WORKS
our process
Impact Invest Her hosts frequent Pitch Events which feature female Founders of startups currently seeking funding. The events conclude with a Member-only discussion to reflect on the pitches. Members interested in learning more form small due-diligence teams.
The decision about whether to invest rests solely on each individual member. Impact Invest Her does not invest as a collective.
how we roll
When female Founders raise funds, they often have demoralizing experiences that go beyond being told ‘no’ by the venture capital community. Impact Invest Her aims to be an antidote to bad boy VC behavior. Before pitches, we do our homework. For pitches, we show up on time, keep our cameras on during Zooms, provide feedback and are generous with our experience, connections and sometimes our capital.
our founder
Pam is a designer by training and angel investor by accident. In 2000, when Pam was a go-to brand specialist for Nike, kate spade, MINI Cooper and Levi’s, she was asked to advise a CPG startup. That company turned into the global sensation Method. With her unexpected windfall and brand-building experience, she caught the bug. Ever since she’s invested in and served as advisor to mission-driven companies. When Pam launched Impact Invest Her in 2024, she immediately wondered why she’d waited so darn long to learn and invest in community with other women.
