Helping Communities Work

Helping Communities Work is a coalition of municipalities, family offices, foundations, banks and nonprofit shared spaces. We are collaborating to create a social impact supply chain, which will advance and broaden the socioeconomic value proposition of place-based impact investing. The supply chain will align with and enhance the environmental, social and governance strategies of diverse stakeholders in opportunity zones and other distressed areas with a focus on real estate.

We support the equitable growth, sharing and transfer of wealth by advancing inter-generational collaborations and solidarity. Our work empowers families to align their philanthropic priorities with their values and aspirations for a better community.

We are also focused on the development of social purpose real estate, which includes shared workspace services for business and social entrepreneurs and the technology-assisted construction of affordable workforce homes and other residential and commercial structures.

Our place-based objectives are designed to serve the socioeconomic interests of low-and-moderate-income individuals and communities, advance diverse social impact missions in participating municipalities and provide desirable financial returns to place-based impact investors.
