Heron Soundbites

We’re back with Episode Two of the Presidential Podcast where we talk to Dana Bezerra about placing community agency front and center in our work.

Heron is excited to launch our 2019 Presidential Podcast! In 2018, we welcomed Dana Bezerra as the new president of the Heron Foundation, and we shifted our focus to working at the intersection of communities and capital markets. Now, following her one-year anniversary, we've asked Dana to reflect on what she's learned throughout her time at Heron, and give us a glimpse of where the foundation is going next. Reflecting on the role of power in the traditional investment universe, we’re thinking about a new investment process that places communities front and center.
