We fuel the pipeline of the economic success for underinvested communities, with the specific goals of improving access to affordable housing, equitable economic development, education, health, & sustainability.

WHAT WE DO

We work with communities across the US to accelerate local businesses and real estate growth with a longer-term objective of preparing the community to receive future investments.

We create viable, investment-ready pipelines of real estate and business investments with an absolute focus on projects that represent a response to real community needs and contribute to inclusive and equitable growth.
 
Our community investment accelerator provides community assessments, technical expertise, business, and real estate investments, and community engagement.
