About Us Founded in Boston in 2004, our national network of sites partner with local communities to tackle the barriers that prevent individuals and families from achieving inclusive prosperity. We select and scale proven programs to directly address those barriers identified by each community. Addressing persistent challenges by scaling what works We use a community-driven approach to tackle economic and racial inequities, remove barriers, create new opportunities and improve economic mobility outcomes. Here’s how we do it: Identify local needs: We listen to the community and prioritize needs where an innovative solution could make a significant difference. Match success stories: We find organizations with a track record of success addressing the need and the best chance of making a positive impact locally. Invest and mobilize local support: We provide multiyear startup capital and rally local support to ensure the organizations become embedded in the community, complementing existing initiatives. Engagement and accountability: We remain deeply engaged with the programs we support and work together to ensure ongoing measurable social impact and long-term sustainability.
