Bridge Financing: Fast and Flexible Capital to Keep Impact Moving

Monday November 17, 2025 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EST

Virtual

This session will focus on bridge financing—short-term capital for mission-driven companies to cover gaps between funding rounds, grant disbursements, or revenue milestones—ensuring their work continues without disruption.

Who uses this? It is a valuable tool for angels, family offices, foundations, DAFs and catalytic loan providers looking to accelerate the growth of impact companies at pivotal moments.

Impact Capital Showcase: Scaling Food Waste Solutions

Join ReFED, in collaboration with CapShift, for our Impact Capital Showcase webinar series. We’ll highlight innovative ways for impact investors and philanthropic funders to deploy capital of all types into food waste solutions that drive meaningful impact.

Each webinar will feature:

  • An educational overview of the featured capital type by an expert funder

  • Sample pitches from funds, businesses, and nonprofit organizations seeking or who have previously secured such capital

  • Audience Q&A

Registering for the webinar series will automatically sign you up for all three events. Please join those that are of interest to you. We will email you a link to the recordings after the event.
