LISC Affiliates


The work of rebuilding neighborhoods—creating affordable housing, renovating a retail corridor or constructing a new school, recreation center or office building—doesn’t happen without financing. And just as with for-profit ventures, nonprofit development requires significant capital. But community development projects in disinvested neighborhoods have a much harder time attracting capital investment.

To help get funding into the places that need it most, LISC created affiliates that bridge the gap between investors and projects in disadvantaged communities and get things built.
