In their mutual interest in doing good while also doing well, Gabriela Berrospi and Anthony Delgado fell in love.

Mr. Delgado, 34, has the easygoing supportive spirit of a big brother, and the I-did-it-and-you-can-too unflappability of a true optimist. So Ms. Gabriela Berrospi, 30, was inspired when he described his entrepreneurial education effort in Puerto Rico at a leadership-development seminar both had attended in New York in 2018.

“I thought, wow, that sounds like something I would like to do,” she said.

A year or so later, when she was starting a Spanish-language online educational organization to help women learn the basics of investments, she asked if she could hire him, for $1,500. She needed someone to manage the technology-development aspects.

He remembered her well from their course together. “I’ve always been looking for a powerful woman who was motivated,” he said. “She’s so animated and energetic, so smart and sweet.”
