The Go Red for Women Venture Fund™ invests across a spectrum of cardiovascular health, brain health and related conditions in alignment with the Association’s strategic focus on improving women’s health at every age, stage and season of life.

The Social Impact Funds

The Social Impact Funds support diverse for-profit and nonprofit businesses tackling the social drivers of health — life conditions that have a direct correlation to cardiovascular risk, health outcomes and longevity.


We fund organizations that focus on health care access and quality, food security and economic empowerment, deploying capital to give more people the opportunity to live longer, healthier lives. Our model creates a more equitable system of startup financing, spurring the growth of traditionally underfunded organizations and expanding resources in underserved communities.
