Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are diseases that affect 1.7 billion people. NTDs cause sickness, disability, cognitive and growth impairment in children, blindness, disfigurement, social isolation, and even death in some cases. Life with NTDs is
extremely hard, not only for a person’s health but also for their ability to work, go to school, earn a living, raise a family, and participate in their community. This doesn’t have to be the case. Treatment and prevention is available and inexpensive,
averaging 50 cents per person annually. Eliminating NTDs is possible and within reach; the question is not if but when.
The END Fund is dedicated to eliminating the five most prevalent NTDs - river blindness, lymphatic filariasis, schistosomiasis, trachoma, and intestinal worms. The END Fund raises funding from foundations, individuals, and companies, and distributes them to regions where the NTD incidence is the highest. We engage and collaborate with governments, local and international NGOs, pharmaceutical companies, and activist-philanthropists to ensure that our collective investments are integrated, high-impact, and most beneficial to the hardest to reach communities.

Chicago Atlantic is an opportunistic credit-oriented investment firm seeking to capitalize on North American investment opportunities that are time-sensitive, complex, or in dislocated markets such as cannabis, where we believe risk is fundamentally mispriced. The absence of traditional debt financing combined with the availability of high-quality retail and industrial real estate collateral makes our debt strategy one of the most attractive niches in the private credit space. Our
first fund, launched in 2019, has closed with over $125mm in commitments. The fund has returned 19%+ annualized net since inception. Last year we launched our second fund, in May of 2021 as an open-ended vehicle (with offshore feeder for
tax-exempt domestic and foreign investors) with a target of $500mm. The Chicago Atlantic platform currently includes a NASDAQ listed Mortgage REIT, private credit fund and private equity fund. Including fund co-investments Chicago Atlantic has deployed $1.5bn+.
