Quiet Momentum, Bright Intentions - Q1 2025 at AUM Solutions
As we turned the corner into a new year, Q1 at AUM Solutions was a quiet but meaningful chapter. Sometimes, the most important work happens behind the scenes—reflecting, listening, and preparing for what’s next.
Slower Season, Clearer Vision
The start of 2025 has felt like a pause across much of the social innovation world. With many organizations and leaders evaluating how shifting policies might affect their priorities, it’s been a moment for recalibration. We’ve used this time to step back, reconnect with our values, and prepare for more visible momentum in the seasons ahead.
New Chapters, New Possibilities
One of our longtime collaborators is pivoting toward a new adventure in the circular economy. While our formal involvement has wrapped, we’re excited to see their next chapter unfold and remain hopeful for future intersections.
Meanwhile, we’re inspired by the early-stage ventures surfacing from social impact funds we’ve connected with—innovative companies building climate-positive supply chains, circular product services, and regenerative food systems. It’s energizing to watch these ideas come to life.
Stepping Into Community Leadership
This quarter, we also celebrated a new leadership role within our network: Olivia joined the board of Alliance Française of Westchester, a nonprofit dedicated to education, culture, and connection. Her commitment to accessible learning and community engagement continues to shine through everything we do.
Looking Ahead
We’re embracing the quiet of Q1 as a grounding force. It’s in these still moments that strong foundations are built—and we’re feeling ready for spring.
If you’re part of a foundation or nonprofit seeking clarity, inspiration, or operational support this year, we’d love to hear from you. Whether you’re refining your mission or scaling your impact, AUM Solutions is here to help.
