Community wealth is the collective assets - social, intellectual, cultural, financial, etc.- that a community owns or controls that enable the community to care for one another and the natural environment. Some examples include worker-owned cooperatives, community-owned housing and locally-owned credit unions.

We build social capital by introducing entrepreneurs in our community to each other. We strengthen and expand the social network of individuals which facilitates the sharing of resources, increases the sense of belonging and care and leads to healthier and more resilient communities.

We train and mentor each member of our cohort, providing them with a holistic education about not only entrepreneurship, but self-development, community development and tools for community wealth building. We will help entrepreneurs identify their strengths, areas to attain mastery and connect them with mentors and technical advisors.

We are seeking to connect diverse community members with others who have a shared desire to co-create a culture of mutual care, interdependence and agency. There is a flourishing culture in Indianapolis, consisting of creatives of all kinds, community wealth focused entrepreneurs, elders with rich knowledge and experience and innovators with big ideas. We aim to unite this collective power and passion in the city for the common good of the community. 

We are mentoring and supporting entrepreneurs to help them operate the best businesses they can, with the focus of creating economic opportunity for the broader community. The idea is to support the circulation of dollars, services and goods within our community, putting money directly into the pockets of community members.
