The Social Impact Committee advances our commitment to equity by fostering deep, trust-based relationships with BIPOC-only organizations. Through this portfolio, we make unrestricted grants that trust those closest to the issues to act with wisdom, urgency, and accountability, and reject bureaucratic constraints in favor of agility and genuine partnership. Structurally, the portfolio is organized around two priorities: Affordable Housing, which provides multi-year, capacity-building grants across Housing & Homelessness, Affordable Housing Development, and First-Time Homeownership to build stability and generational wealth; and Emergent Needs, which offers one-time grants that respond swiftly to urgent challenges arising from external or systemic disruptions. Together, these two areas allow us to pair long-term, relationship-driven investments with the flexibility to meet communities' most immediate needs when they need it most.
