Samaritan Partners is a public benefit venture capital impact fund – the first of its kind. We bridge the gap between traditional for-profit investing and nonprofit giving. Samaritan Partners Fund I is creating a more inclusive and accessible world by accelerating capital investment and partnership in early-stage, for-profit companies serving the disability sector. Our goal is to achieve scalable, sustainable social impact alongside financial returns. The Fund's unique structure as a public benefit venture fund holds us accountable to our mission and ensures alignment between Samaritan Partners and our key stakeholders – our investors, our portfolio companies and the communities we aim to serve.
