Oklahoma Impact Investing Collaborative

A National Leader in Pay for Success

Blending government, philanthropic, and other private financing to maximize impact

The Oklahoma Impact Investing Collaborative (Collaborative), a wholly owned and managed subsidiary of MetaFund, is an impact investing consortium blending government, philanthropic, and other private capital to invest in mission-driven nonprofit and for-profit organizations with the potential to improve outcomes for Oklahomans.

“There are solutions and resources all around us—some more challenging than others to access. It’s up to all of us to find creative ways to orchestrate them and carry them forward. As our partners exemplify, persistence is a common thread throughout our shared successes. The Collaborative is honored to work alongside those serving our families, friends, and neighbors."

– Ed Long, Oklahoma Impact Investing Collaborative President & Co-Founder

Impact Loans

Designed to make funds accessible to the borrower over time as they achieve construction, impact, or operational milestones, Impact Loans can be used to finance real estate construction, asset acquisition (equipment or real estate) or working capital needs.

Pay for Success Loans

As a national leader in Pay for Success, the Collaborative partners with private, government, and nonprofit entities to create innovative financing opportunities that drive measurable impact.

In a Pay for Success loan, philanthropic investors provide upfront capital to fund evidence-based or promising interventions that aim to improve outcomes for the communities served. If those outcomes are achieved, a third party—often a government agency—repays the investors.

This model ensures that taxpayer dollars are only spent on proven results while enabling private funders to take on the initial risk and help scale effective, data-driven solutions.
