New Website, Same Mission

We hired one of the VCU Create-A-Thon students, Anna Vancheri, to redesign our website to make it easier to navigate and match our new branding.

 

Collective 365 is excited to officially announce our new website and branding on October 1, but as a loyal supporter, we are giving you a sneak peek.

The COVID-19 Pandemic has disproportionately impacted communities of color. We have seen this play out in many facets of the community.
.
While there were loans made available to support small businesses, we learned that "...despite applying for funding at a rate 10 percent higher than their non-minority counterparts, Black businesses are 19 percent less likely to be approved for a loan. "
.
Make it make sense?

.
Until the systems are dismantled and new ones are created, we will continue to see these inequities.
.
Collective 365 was created to provide the financial support to Black and Brown businesses (and individuals, groups and non profits) who otherwise are denied loans due to systemic racism
.
Unfortunately, we cannot fund every grant applicant, but the goal is to grow our fund so more folks can have access to money that is not tied to white supremacy being maintained.
.
Can you help us reach our 2022 goal by donating today?

Collective 365 is a registered 501(c)(3) and donations are tax deductible.
