Welcome to the third installment of Raise Green Investor of the Month! In these short vignettes we’ll share the story of investors like you, who are anxious about climate change and social injustice and are unwilling to wait for the tides of change to create progress. These investors are action-minded and impatient with the status quo, and have turned to impact investing to empower meaningful change. With as little as $100, you can support the climate entrepreneurs and leaders who are building a better tomorrow, today.

I invested in CT Green Bank Liberty Notes. I like the opportunity to put my money to good use and get payback on it as well. Too many investment opportunities are only for rich people, helping rich people getting richer, so it’s nice to feel like those of us who don’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars can also participate - and gain wealth from - the green energy transition
