**Philanthropy Impact has today launched 23 Impact, an online platform that aims
to help individuals better connect, learn, and collaborate in the realm of philanthropy
and impact investing.**

 [23 Impact](http://23impact.org/) aims to serve individual philanthropists and 
investors, as well as private client advisors, wealth management firms, nonprofit
organisations, government entities, and other players in the field.

A space to network and access resources, the platform enables users to create profiles
that highlight their philanthropic visions, investment objectives, and financial
strategies, and showcase their experience and expertise.

assets, and reporting. In addition, it enables users to earn CISI-Endorsed and Continuing
