about us
We invest in enterprises throughout Eastern Massachusetts that address the growing wealth gap and ecological challenges of our times. Why do we do this? Because we believe there won’t be any change in the fundamental conditions that contribute to persistent poverty and injustice until and unless we create the opportunity for people to own and control their future.
