Kapor Capital Management is an impact-focused venture firm/LLC that backs early-stage, tech-driven companies and career-pathway programs that explicitly aim to close gaps in access and outcomes for low-income communities and people of color in the United States. In addition to direct investments, they operate fellowship programs and network-building initiatives (e.g., Kapor Fellows) that connect underrepresented talent to VC, startups, and mentorship, prioritizing market-based solutions in education, work, finance, justice, health and food access.
Primarily invests (equity) in early-stage startups with mission-aligned business models and runs fellowship/network programs to build pipelines into tech/VC; programmatic support is selective and cohort-based rather than broad open grants. Public grant sizes and open application cycles are limited—support is delivered through investments, fellowships, partnerships, and occasional programmatic grants.

Position your organization as a scalable, market-based tech solution serving low-income or Black/Latinx communities and highlight measurable outcomes; pursue introductions to portfolio or Kapor partners and apply for cohort-based fellowships (Kapor Fellows) when open—unsolicited traditional grant proposals are unlikely to be the primary route to support.
