BlueHub Capital CEO Elyse Cherry recently joined Denver Frederick on The Business of Giving podcast to share the story of how a $3,500 seed investment helped launch a movement that has since generated more than $20 billion in community impact across 42 states.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Elyse reflects on BlueHub’s origins, the lessons learned from navigating challenges, and the importance of staying rooted “at the intersection of downtown and community.” She also discusses BlueHub’s game-changing SUN foreclosure-prevention initiative, the organization’s growing use of technology, and her vision for building healthier, more equitable communities.
“We did not want to be an organization that said, ‘Oh, well, we gave it a great try.’ We wanted to be an organization that was really successful.” – Elyse Cherry
