True Link
True Link is a San Francisco fintech that builds banking, prepaid cards, and trust-administration tools for people the financial system tends to forget: aging adults, people with disabilities, those in recovery, and the family members and professional fiduciaries who manage their money. Co-founded in 2012 by Kai Stinchcombe and Claire McDonnell after Stinchcombe watched his grandmother lose her savings to telemarketers, the company now serves more than 250,000 families and 300+ nonprofits.
