Share

As we gear up for the 1:30 PM Eastern, October 28th, meeting of the Impact Cherub Club, we invite you to join us. The club meets to review impact investments that everyone is eligible to make and that virtually anyone can afford. We share responsibility for completing basic due diligence before making investments. While members are encouraged to invest in the Club’s picks, no one is required to invest.

The Club is open to all “Impact Members” of the SuperCrowd (our paying subscribers). I don’t touch the Money members invest. They do so directly for their own accounts. We benefit from new members by the fresh perspectives they bring and our growing social impact. Please join us!

Next Meeting—October 28th, at 1:30 PM Eastern

At our next meeting on October 28th, at 1:30 PM Eastern/10:00 AM Pacific, consistent with our plans for future sessions, the agenda will have three items:

  • Diligence Reports

  • Post Mortem

  • Preliminary Consideration of New Candidate Investments

I’ll review those items in reverse order.

New Company Consideration

After some preliminary screening, I’ve shared some candidate offerings with the members of the club to choose which we’ll review this month. Members chose the following:

HEVO

HEVO is developing patented wireless charging systems for electric vehicles that eliminate the need for plugs and cables, making charging as easy as parking. Backed by investors like Ulu Ventures, VoLo Earth Ventures, and Dream Fund, HEVO has partnerships with Stellantis and other major automakers to integrate its Technology into up to seven new EV platforms. With UL and SAE certifications, HEVO’s system delivers plug-in–level efficiency at competitive costs and is positioned for $100M+ in potential annual revenue by 2028. Founded by U.S. Army veteran Jeremy McCool, HEVO aims to become the global standard for EV wireless charging infrastructure. Learn more at Wefunder.

Pump for Joy

Pump for Joy is a women-founded startup creating disposable, biodegradable breast milk collection kits that eliminate the need to clean pump parts—making life easier for moms on the go. Founded by Erin Martin and Vanessa Parker, both working mothers and experienced entrepreneurs, the company offers patent-pending, eco-friendly kits designed for single use that fully break down in months. Their subscription-based model provides convenience and recurring revenue. Backed by Equilibrium Impact Ventures and recognized with grants and pitch competition wins, Pump for Joy is raising funds on a $2.25 million valuation cap to finalize prototypes, prepare for FDA approval, and launch pilot testing.

Short-Fuse Offering

Each month, we spotlight a “short fuse” offering—an investment opportunity with a tight fundraising deadline, often closing within a few weeks. These offerings don’t allow for our usual two-month, two-meeting review process, which includes an initial discussion followed by a final vote. Most short-fuse deals are small business loans that offer attractive financial returns while also allowing us to support community builders, social entrepreneurs, and underrepresented founders making a meaningful impact.

Post Mortem

At each Impact Cherub Club meeting, we devote just a few minutes to reflecting on a past investment—either one that has closed its doors or successfully completed repayment of a debt or equity commitment. We revisit the information we had at the time of our decision and compare it with the actual outcome, asking ourselves what we might learn. This brief Exercise sharpens our judgment, helps us spot patterns, and improves our ability to make thoughtful, impact-focused investment choices in the future.

Diligence Reports

We’ll begin with the due diligence reports from the Impact Cherub Club members who volunteered to research the companies after we briefly learned a bit about them last month. After hearing the members’ reports, we’ll vote to determine whether or not to recommend investment in the companies. The decision will be made available to all Impact Cherub Club members, including those who don’t attend this month. Register here.

Here are the companies we’ll learn more about this month:

InfiniCell

InfiniCell is raising capital via a Reg CF SAFE on Wefunder, offering future equity ahead of a projected $13.5 million valuation (early investors benefit from a $12.15 million cap). The company is developing aluminum-ion batteries that promise to be safer, ultra-fast charging, non-flammable, and built from abundant materials—addressing lithium-ion’s vulnerabilities in EVs, grid storage, and aerospace. Founded by a PhD battery scientist with 14+ years of R&D experience and a pending safety-focused patent, InfiniCell has functional prototypes under its belt and is looking to scale through licensing and partnerships. It’s a rare chance to back next-generation energy storage before the shift beyond lithium unfolds.

SOHO MD

SohoMD is offering a Reg CF SAFE round through Wefunder at a $60 million valuation cap, with an Early Bird bonus on the first $250K of investment at a $53 million cap. The company brings together psychiatry, Therapy, functional medicine, AI-driven clinical decision support, and even patent-pending VR therapy, offering personalized, scalable mental healthcare. Having served 70,000 patients across 19 states and achieved ~$20 million in 2024 revenue with profitability in recent months, SohoMD is projecting significant Growth. This community round provides a unique chance to support an integrative, tech-driven Mental Health innovator having meaningful impact—and momentum.
