“I have a passion for developing and expanding angel education and it rubbed off on my wife, Ann, who has been very encouraging as I have pursued these endeavors. If I wanted to do something little, she wanted to do something bigger. There’s no question in my mind that this second gift wouldn’t have happened without her encouragement,” – Bill Payne.

The Angel Investor Foundation (AIF) is pleased to announce a $300,000 pledge to its Seed the Future capital campaign from the Payne Family, a name synonymous with angel investing. This is the second significant pledge from the Paynes and it brings their campaign contributions to more than half a million dollars.

The Paynes and hundreds of other donors have generously supported AIF’s Seed the Future Campaign, which was set up to invest in initiatives that fuel job growth, innovation and economic prosperity for all communities. Pleased with the impact of their first investment, the Paynes decided to make their second gift a “matching contingent gift” in hopes of encouraging others to give back in a meaningful way.

Donations will further the Angel Investor Foundation’s mission and support for entrepreneurs who need access to education, funding and mentorship resources. By elevating the connection between angel investors and entrepreneurs, the foundation will grow and diversify the economic ecosystem.
