Today we received one of the first awards under the new CA Investment & Innovation Program. Thank you @MoniqueLimonCA @CASenCaballero @FionaMa for championing this important resource! #CDFIs finance #CA's biggest needs, like affordable housing, healthcare facilities & good jobs.

On Wednesday we attended the #groundbreaking ceremony for 100% #affordablehousing in #WestOakland, developed by @EBALDC and Allied Housing. Community Vision is honored to have partnered on this project. #CommunityDevelopment #CDFI

Our Financial Management Consultant Kshama Kanakoor wrote about depreciation, an essential but often neglected expense for #nonprofits. Learn how including depreciation in your budget can lead to getting more money for your programs from funders: buff.ly/3sJywCA

This project wouldn't be possible without the support of our financing partners @abode_services, @jpmorgan Chase & Co. (construction &permanent lender), @Oakland @AlamedaCounty (A1) @CaliforniaGov (Accelerator, MHP, IIG), @oaklandhousing, @FHLBankSF, @CommVisionCA @neighborworks

We & @AlliedCorpH closed on construction financing for 59units of affordable housing at West Grand Avenue &Brush in #WestOakland! This project reflects our healthy neighborhood approach which we 1st implemented by creating the San Pablo Area Revitalization Collaborative in 2014

Last week our VP of External Relations Sabrina Kelley joined @nhoodindustries in #Fresno to celebrate! A few weeks ago we approved a #smallbusiness loan for $1.7M. Congratulations on another step toward securing your building and continuing the legacy in Fresno! #CDFI

Just finished getting our new financial budgeting and forecasting tools polished up in time for 23-24 planning. Thanks to @CommVisionCA for their expertise and patience! #30yearsluna @jack @HaasSrFund @Hewlett_Found

We look forward to connecting with our #CDFI partners at the #2022OFNConf next week! Our Director of Business Development, Nate Schaffran, will be presenting on the panel "Investing in Food: New Directions In Food Financing." #InvestinChange buff.ly/3RNKG7n

It was great joining @NPHANC #NPH2022 on Monday! Amanda Bornstein our Interim Co-Director of Real Estate & Training spoke on the panel “Commercial Spaces in Affordable Housing Communities" w/co-panelists from @RCDHousing & @EBALDC #CDFI #CommunityDevelopment #AffordableHousing

Learning from @CommVisionCA @RCDHousing and @EBALDC about how to develop mixed-use buildings that go beyond providing housing to strengthening communities. #NPH2022

We have signed @NMTCCoalition’s letter to Congress in support of a permanent #NMTC. Established in 2000, the NMTC program has a track record of financing projects that strengthen communities and generate long-term economic growth. Read the letter here: nmtccoalition.org/2022/09/09/org…

Our community of investors are key to moving capital into community-led organizations. We are excited to feature Nicole Middleton Holloway, CFP, in our latest Investor Spotlight: communityvisionca.org/nicole-middlet… #CommunityVision35 #CDFI

Community Vision’s partners have created or preserved 4.4 million square feet of community facility space and affordable housing. This is space that is building resilience, increasing power & fostering community thriving. buff.ly/3xl3weS #CommunityVision35 #CDFI

Based in a small town Livingston Community Health partnered with Community Vision to borrow funds to purchase a 12.2 acre lot & build a new health complex, vastly expanding their services in the community. #CommunityVision35 #CommunityDevelopment #CDFI buff.ly/3xl3weS

Preserving valued community space is central to our work. We are honored to have provided consulting & advising support for 6,400+ nonprofits & social enterprises throughout our 35 years to help build stability of place. buff.ly/3xl3weS #CommunityVision35 #CDFI

Ensuring permanency of place for the #arts in communities is a vital part of cultural resilience, power building & celebration. We're proud to have worked with @EastOaklandBCZ, @destinyarts, Eastside Arts Alliance & Artes America in this crucial work #CDFI nytimes.com/2022/09/20/bus…

Today, we’re honored to highlight the work of @EastOaklandBCZ as they are actively increasing community ownership of community assets in East Oakland: buff.ly/3qTHqwA #CommunityVision35 #CommunityDevelopment #CDFI

Over 35yrs, millions of dollars have moved into historically disinvested communities & BIPOC-led organizations. Together w/our partners these investments are advancing a reparative economy & community ownership of assets. #CommunityVision35 #CDFI buff.ly/3xl3weS

Last year the Bay Area Racial Equity Fund successfully moved $2M into BIPOC communities. It demonstrated an urgent, ongoing need for no-cost, flexible capital & a desire for financial advising among BIPOC-led nonprofits. #CommunityVision35 #CDFI buff.ly/3xoTz0a

For 35 yrs Community Vision has been honored to partner w/100s of organizations seeking to build power & permanency of place in their communities. We do this through lending & financial advising. @centrolegal buff.ly/3xl3weS #CommunityVision35 #CDFI #CommunityDevelopment
