This case accompanies the Fundacion Paraguaya (A) case. Martin Burt, CEO of Fundacion Paraguay, has helped another school become financially self-sufficient using the same business model he applied to the San Francisco High School, but has found that replicating his success requires more financial capital than he had initially thought. Since banks are hesitant to lend to his business, Martin must turn to venture philanthropists for funding. Martin employs a Social Return on Investment (SROI) metric to prove the legitimacy of his project to the philanthropists.
