Who We Are
We are a Y Combinator alumna and
new Venture Partner at Pioneer Fund,
an NSF SBIR grant awardee, and
a psychotherapist-turned-founder.
Together, we're committed to increasing the number of diverse teams of startup founders who successfully raise funding.
What We Offer
Investor Connections
At our exclusive, online Founder Access to VCs Events (FAVEs), we enable
underrepresented founders to have an equal opportunity to connect with investors -
no warm intros or elite networks required.
Pitch Deck Review
Share your pitch deck with investors and fellow founders
and receive honest, constructive feedback.
You control whether founders, investors, and/or
FairFunders Advisors see your deck.
Brainstorming Sessions
Got a startup problem to solve?
We've found that the best startup advice comes from other founders.
Schedule a free session with a fellow founder, or schedule a session with FairFunders for a modest donation.
Fair Funders List
Each month, we put together a list of investors who
fund diverse teams of founders. If you know or are an investor who is committed to
diversity and inclusion in their portfolio,
we'd love to hear from you.
We’re proud to have featured investors
from these firms at
