  Elevate Phoenix

  Education

  Elevate Phoenix operates as a non-profit organization focused on providing long-term, relationship-based support to urban youth in Phoenix, Arizona. Their initial efforts started with a small class of 28 students and have since expanded to serve over 6,000 young people. The organization's core mission is to build life-changing connections with at-risk youth by embedding full-time, salaried teacher-mentors within local schools. These mentors, many of whom come from similar urban backgrounds as the students, provide 24/7 support and teach an accredited curriculum centered on character, life skills, leadership development, and workforce readiness. This holistic approach addresses the challenges students face, aiming to break cycles of poverty and improve academic outcomes. The in-school programming is complemented by after-school tutoring, career instruction, and community service activities. A key component of the model is its cross-age mentoring, where students learn to become role models for their peers and younger children. Elevate Phoenix's operations are primarily funded through grants from foundations, other nonprofits, and individual donations. The organization has demonstrated significant impact, reporting a 98% graduation rate and a 90% post-secondary entry rate for students engaged in its programs. In 2024, Elevate Phoenix received a notable $1 million grant from the Yield Giving Open Call, managed by Lever for Change, which will support its strategic plan for expansion. This funding is intended to help the organization grow its presence to 11 of the largest Title One high schools in the Phoenix Union High School District and their associated feeder schools. The organization's financials for the 2023 fiscal year reported total revenues of approximately $2.4 million and expenses of around $2.5 million. A significant portion of its expenses, about 85%, is directed toward its programs.

  eMoneyPool

  Fintech

  eMoneyPool was a financial technology company that operated an online platform for group savings and lending, also known as money pools or rotating savings and credit associations (ROSCAs). The founders' familiarity with this savings method from their own family background inspired them to create a safer and more efficient digital version. The firm's primary service was a microfinance platform where users could form or join savings pools with friends, family, or other users across the United States. In a typical pool, a group of individuals would contribute a fixed amount of money for a set number of periods, with each member taking a turn to receive the total lump sum. This model effectively provided a short-term, interest-free loan for early recipients and a forced-savings mechanism for those who received the pot later. The business targeted the underbanked and unbanked populations, particularly low-income minority communities who often used informal savings pools but lacked access to traditional financial services. Revenue was generated by charging a fee, around 5% of the total pool amount, which also served to guarantee the pool in case a member defaulted on a payment. A significant feature of eMoneyPool's service was its function as a credit-building tool. The company reported users' payment histories to credit bureaus like Experian, allowing participants to establish or improve their credit scores through consistent on-time payments. This created a pathway for customers to access mainstream financial products such as car loans or mortgages from eMoneyPool's partner banks and credit unions. The platform provided transparency through user verification and peer ratings, and handled all transactions electronically for increased security. The company received seed funding from investors including Accion Venture Lab and Village Capital. According to public records, eMoneyPool ceased operations around November 2019.
