Bio
Jenn Pryce is President and CEO of Calvert Foundation, a nonprofit organization that specializes in impact investing around the globe. Today, Calvert Foundation has nearly $300 million invested in over 200 nonprofits and social enterprises working across 80 countries in vital social sectors such as affordable housing, microfinance, women’s empowerment, fair trade, and sustainable agriculture. Having worked at Calvert Foundation for nearly a decade, Jenn has shaped the strategic direction of the organization to lead on rising trends such as investing with a gender lens and making impact investing more accessible to retail investors. Since her appointment as CEO, Calvert Foundation has launched five national and international investment initiatives: Age Strong, Raíces, Ours To Own, Women Investing in Women, and the India Investment Initiative. Jenn started off in the Peace Corps working in Africa where she was exposed to the frustrating limited flows of capital to lower income communities. From there she set off to work for major banks in New York and London including NeubergerBerman and Morgan Stanley focusing on capital streams in emerging markets. She then realized she could hone her focus on investing in a socially responsible way supporting underserved communities. She has since committed her career to impact investing at Calvert Foundation. Jenn is on the board of the Hitachi Foundation, Institute for Sustainable Communities and Impact Assets. She has previously served on the boards of Groundswell and Apple Tree Institute. She received her Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Union College and her MBA from Columbia University.
