Kudos to the Financial Times for highlighting the power of funder collaboratives like The END Fund. With a network of 7,000 investors from 68 countries, they’re combining capital and resources to tackle neglected tropical diseases like trachoma. This collective action is literally giving sight to the blind, restoring vision to hundreds of thousands. The success of the END Fund is a testament to what we can achieve when we come together with a shared vision and purpose. https://on.ft.com/3W53x23

Last week, Mark Matson led the Investor Coaching Series, Save the Investor, Save the World Investor. The session was an exploration of capitalism, which is considered to be the most effective economic system available. While it has gaps, capitalism offers higher returns than any other system, enabling investors to create more value for their families, and loved ones, and even contribute to charitable organizations that bridge the gaps left by government and capitalism. The attendees left the event with renewed confidence in capitalism, recognizing the abundance and opportunities around us, often overlooked due to the media’s typically negative portrayal. Bellino Financial Coaching is excited about the next event, ‘Dismantling Myths of Investing’, scheduled for May 29th at 5:30 PM EST. This session will be a powerful conversation for investors to uncover a new perspective on investing, one grounded in empirically tested, Nobel Prize-winning academic principles. We invite you to register for this educational event and discover what you don’t know about investing. For more information on how to register, please email [email protected]?utm_source=linkedin.
