We provide funds at below-market interest rates that can be particularly useful to start, grow, or sustain a program, or when results cannot be achieved with grant dollars alone.
We support local small- and mid-size organizations that are working to advance recommendations outlined in the Think Bigger Do Good Policy Series.
Our participatory funds alter traditional grantmaking by shifting power
to impacted communities to direct resources and make funding decisions.

The Overdose Prevention and Community Healing Fund is a citywide grant fund that brings resources and investments directly to communities impacted by the overdose crisis across Philadelphia.
In 2021, Philadelphia lost 1,276 people to the overdose crisis, the highest number of unintentional overdose deaths on record and a 5% increase in fatal overdoses from 2020. The crisis is ongoing and evolving, with growing racial disparities in overdose deaths.
The Overdose Prevention and Community Healing Fund will award grants to community-based organizations that engage residents in neighborhoods most affected by the overdose epidemic. The Fund will invest in direct programs in overdose prevention, substance use awareness, and harm reduction, in addition to holistic programs that address community trauma, stigma associated with substance use, and promote safety and mental well-being for communities and community-based workers in the substance use field. Overall, the Fund aims to mobilize trusted community messengers in efforts to repair and revitalize impacted communities.
