Organizational criteria
Community bonds can only be issued by charities, nonprofits and cooperatives in Canada. If your organization operates under one of these three legal structures and is committed to filling a need in your community, values-aligned community financing might be the next right step.
The benefits
Organizations who move through our Readiness Program gain clarity on their project and build their team’s capacity for strategic financing.
Create a financial model for your project and gain clarity on your potential capital stack.
