新的影响力投资将延续锡拉丘兹住房计划

目前,超过 310 万美元正通过我们的地方影响力投资计划用于推进住房、商业发展和贷款。

纽约中部社区基金会(Central New York Community Foundation)的地方 影响力投资计划已向 Home HeadQuarters 发放了两笔可收回赠款,总计 186 万美元。 这两笔赠款将帮助该组织继续开展住房项目,直至市和州的赠款合同资金到位。

Home HeadQuarters (HHQ) 是一家非营利性住房和社区发展组织,也是经过认证的社区发展金融机构 (CDFI),在纽约州中部和北部为个人和家庭创造住房机会。 该组织成立于 1996 年,旨在通过针对房屋装修和首次购房者的计划,解决锡拉丘兹市业主入住率下降和投资减少的问题。

一笔 86 万美元的可收回赠款将使该组织能够继续为当地房主提供紧急财产维修资金,同时等待社区发展整笔赠款(CDBG)资金的偿还。 100 万美元的可收回赠款将帮助 HHQ 继续在锡拉丘兹近西区建造和翻新单户节能住宅。 房屋完工后,纽约州能源研究与发展局(NYSERDA)将提供成本补偿,HHQ 将把房屋出售给中低收入家庭。

“Home HeadQuarters 的创始人兼首席执行官 Kerry Quaglia 说:”这种来自 CNY 社区基金会的灵活、低息紧急投资贷款正是帮助 Home HeadQuarters 继续为社区服务所需要的。 “虽然我们的组织一直以客户至上的方式运作,先使用获得的资金,然后再等待政府的报销,但在资金支付滞后近一年的情况下,任何组织都无法继续有效运作。我们感谢 CNY 社区基金会对当地住房和当地非营利组织的承诺”。

这些投资总额超过 310 万美元,通过社区基金会的影响力投资计划推动了住房、商业发展和借贷。 影响力投资使组织能够利用其财务资源进行投资,既产生财务回报,又产生积极的社会成果。 2023 年,基金会董事会批准了一项政策,允许将不超过 5%的主投资池用于影响力投资。 到目前为止,已建造了 41 栋新房,为住房、个人和企业贷款筹集了 5620 万美元。

“社区基金会负责社区投资的副总裁弗兰克-里奇(Frank Ridzi)说:”除了是一家 CDFI 之外,Home HeadQuarters 还是我们 LeadSafeCNY 计划和振兴当地住房的更广泛社区工作的重要合作伙伴,因此我们相信这两笔可收回赠款是明智而值得信赖的投资。 “我们很高兴能成为 HHQ 的一部分,致力于在资源不足的社区扩大安全住房机会”。

社区基金会的地方影响力投资计划旨在满足广泛的社区需求,重点是帮助纽约州中部居民积累财富,使居民有机会为该地区的经济表现做出贡献,并为资源不足的社区和非营利组织提供获得资本的途径。 了解更多信息,请访问cnycf.org/impactinvesting
