Why Journey to Impact?

How can we use capital to change the world?

In a time of interconnected global challenges, your capital is one of the most powerful tools for creating change. Yet many wealth holders lack the framework and community to move from intention to action.

Journey to Impact offers families and wealth holders the rare opportunity to explore both the technical understanding and deeper wisdom of conscious capital allocation. Led by families who have walked this path themselves, this isn't just another investment course - it's a community of peers asking profound questions: What does it mean to be a good ancestor? What is enough?

You'll leave with practical tools to begin an impact investing strategy that you'll have the confidence to take to your advisor, plus a network of like-minded peers who understand this journey.

This isn't just about returns - it's about leadership, capacity building, and using your capital to address our complex world. Join over 200 individuals and families who have completed Journey to Impact and aligned their capital with their values.

What makes Journey to Impact different?

Learn from families who've been on this journey

Unlike typical investment courses led by advisors, Journey to Impact is guided by families who have navigated this transformation personally. Danny Almagor and Hayley Morris bring both the wisdom of experience and the humility of ongoing learners.

You'll join wealth holders, next generation family members, and foundation leaders in a unique setting designed for authentic connection and practical learning.

Journey to Impact will guide you in designing your impact investing strategy, transitioning your portfolio, and provide you with a network of like-minded peers to explore how to use private capital to manifest personal and family values – for current and future generations.

Who is the program for?

Wealth holders ready to align capital with values

This program takes a multigenerational approach to wealth and has been designed for:

  • Seek a tested framework for family conversations about wealth and legacy
