Where We Invest

Aligned Investments

Aligned investments are in harmony with the McKnight Foundation’s mission and values. Their financial performance is evaluated against the broader market.

High Impact Investments

High impact investments deliver greater environmental and social change. Most have market expectations; a few Program-Related Investments have charitable expectations.

Exited Investments

Exited investments are no longer in our portfolio due to success, failure, or other factors. We list them for transparency and learning opportunities for other investors.
