Community Thrive Fund

A Community Capital Investment Pool in Partnership with CFAcademy

Mission at a Glance

Empowering Communities Through Fiscal Activism

The Community Thrive Fund is a private/nonprofit capital investment pool created in partnership with the Community Finance Academy. We mobilize mission-aligned capital from everyday supporters and institutional partners to fund grassroots projects that deliver real community wealth.

About FAM Capital Fund

At the heart of this effort is the Fiscal Activist Movement (FAM)—a bold approach to democratizing access to capital. Through FAM, we unite small-dollar contributors with large-scale funders to create an inclusive funding ecosystem that powers transformative projects.

​

Key Objectives:

​

  • Mobilize Community Capital through the Fiscal Activist Movement (FAM)

  • Blend Funding Streams by merging grassroots crowdfunding with major investment sources

  • Fund Impact-Driven Projects, including those approved by the Community Approval Pipeline (CAP) or other mission-aligned review processes

  • Strengthen Sustainable Partnership Models by assigning 50% equity ownership of funded projects to the nonprofit arm, providing CFAcademy with a perpetual, mission-aligned source of revenue
