“CataCap is a technology platform that enables foundations, donor-advised funds (DAFs), family offices, and others to channel a portion of their capital into high-impact, mission-aligned investments in climate, health, and equity, alongside financial returns.”

Park Rangers Capital quietly closed their first fund earlier this year: a $4.3M debut fund backed by 130 LPs.

Park Rangers Capital believes capital, content, and conviction compound together. Distribution is the moat, and they’re building their own every day.

Park Rangers Capital completed an investment on CataCap. successfully raising $28,900.00.

There’s a paradox at the heart of modern philanthropy: a gap between mission and intent. Each year, billions of dollars flow into charitable vehicles such as foundations, trusts, and donor-advised funds (DAFs). Yet an estimated 95% of that money is parked in traditional public markets — stocks, mutual funds, and bonds — often invested in companies whose activities directly contradict the donor’s stated mission or values.

Billions of dollars intended for good are stuck in limbo, rather than flowing toward mission-driven investing. Donor-advised funds (DAFs)—charitable vehicles where donors receive an immediate tax deduction but can decide later where the money goes—hold more than $250 billion in assets. Yet most of this capital sits in traditional stock and bond portfolios rather than supporting entrepreneurs who are tackling climate change, healthcare inequities, and other pressing social problems. This represents a massive missed opportunity.

Sea Forward is proud to announce a new opportunity for individuals to ‘donate to invest’ in ocean health, made possible through a launch on CataCap, a first-of-its-kind platform democratizing access to impact investing with philanthropic assets.

Individuals can now contribute as little as $250 to support ocean health in high-impact areas with the potential to see returns to reinvest or grant out again. These donor investments, previously available only to major funders, can now be made into the Global Fund for Coral Reefs or across the broader Sea Forward portfolio, which includes a diverse set of investments into select ocean impact funds.

QBE North America has launched a first-of-its-kind initiative in the US that gives employees a vehicle to participate in philanthropic impact investments made through the CataCap platform.
