The student-managed Steven Tarrson Impact Investment Fund at Chicago Booth’s Rustandy Center for Social Sector Innovation is proud to announce its investment in Harmon Care, a telehealth startup that partners with primary care doctors to meet the overwhelming need for accessible and affordable quality mental health care among adults in the US.

The Tarrson Fund, one of the largest student-run impact investment funds in the country, provides critical catalytic capital to early stage mission-driven companies. Booth MBA students drive the entire investment cycle, from sourcing and pitching deals to financial and impact diligence and making investment decisions. 

This is the Tarrson Fund’s third investment, and its first one in the healthcare sector. In 2022, the fund invested in Harvest Thermal, a home heating company whose smart thermal battery system slashes carbon output, lowers monthly heating bills, and supports a fully renewable grid. Earlier this year, the fund invested in Kadeya, a startup that is taking on the $40 billion single-use plastic water problem with the world’s first closed-loop vending kiosk.
