Ours To Own is a place-based community investment initiative raising and deploying long-term capital in cities across the country, developed by the Calvert Foundation, a nonprofit financial intermediary. The Ours To Own campaign mobilizes local residents to invest in the health of their own communities through Calvert’s Community Investment Note, an innovative fixed income product for financing community development activities. Launched in Baltimore in 2016, in just the first eight months of the campaign, over $4.1 million has been raised for Baltimore-based projects. This grant provided funding for advisory business services to help create and sustain small business pipelines for lending. Humanim is the local organizing partner for Ours To Own in Baltimore.
