October 19 is the deadline to apply for up to $250,000 in mission-related investment from the Deaconess Foundation.
The funding is open to social impact organizations, including service providers, advocacy groups, community development financial institutions, credit unions, nonprofit financial intermediaries and social enterprises. The intent is to expand access to financial capital, thus building community capacity, while support the foundation’s mission to strengthen the region’s capability to achieve positive outcomes for children.
“By making low-interest capital available to community organizations we hope to increase economic mobility for families, advance community development through social capital projects and creatively resource innovative ideas,” said Rev. Starsky Wilson, Deaconess Foundation president and CEO.
