How It Works

From First Conversation to Permanent Fund

Typically 60 to 90 days from introduction to an active Socioeconomic Development Fund — with full transparency at every stage.

Rapid Fund Establishment

60 to 90 days from first conversation to an active Development Fund — no lengthy application process, no committee review cycles.

Transparent Cost Structure

Zero cost before NDA. Zero cost before the capital provider is disclosed. Program success fee paid from the activated fund — never from your operating budget.

Permanent Community Impact

The fund does not expire. It is not subject to annual renewal. It belongs to your organization permanently, governed by your own board.

Five stages

Full transparency at every step. Capital provider identity disclosed at Stage 3.

Weeks 1 to 2 — OPEN

Qualification Assessment. No NDA required. Full program overview shared openly. No fee. No commitment. We confirm your organization meets the six criteria.

Weeks 2 to 3 — OPEN

Banking Relationship Verification. Your existing principal banking relationship — PNC, M&T, Wells Fargo, JPMorgan, or regional equivalent — is verified as the activation channel. No new bank required.

Week 3 — CONFIDENTIAL

NDA Execution and Capital Provider Disclosed. Upon mutual NDA execution, full capital provider documentation is provided — institution name, regulatory credentials, and authorization. KYC conducted for both parties.

Weeks 4 to 8 — ACTIVATION

Socioeconomic Development Fund Established. The fund of $12.5M to $125M+ is established through your organization’s own principal banking relationship. No debt. No collateral. No cost to operating budget.

Month 3 Onward — PERMANENT

Fund Deploys to Your Community Priorities. Your own board governs deployment across your community mandate. The fund is permanent and independent of all government funding cycles.
