Capital for People and Land

We organize with movements toward economic liberation, relationships of repair and justice, and regenerative land stewardship.

JFI shifts financial flows toward a just transition by offering infrastructure for community capital projects managed by and for Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and working class communities.

Our Approach.

Community-Led Investing.

We partner with philanthropy and investors to deploy charitable capital, including program-related investments and grants to advance impact-first goals. These goals include climate and environmental justice; economic, racial, and gender justice; regenerative land stewardship; and other elements of a just transition. We resource opportunities led by and redistribute wealth to BIPOC communities. By building pooled investment funds, and facilitating capital from donor advised funds (DAFs), we make it easy to move patient and affordable capital to just transition, land access and stewardship, and community wealth building projects.

Community-Governed Fund Hosting.

We provide infrastructure support for visionary leaders who are reimagining how capital can uplift the practices of the BIPOC working class and other marginalized communities as well as ancestral and next economy wisdom to advance a just transition to regenerative economies. We work with trusted partners to complement our hosting services with: financial, compliance, and legal services; investments, grants and contract management; accounting, audit and valuation; technology infrastructure and support; and other core services for your back office so you can focus on shifting capital to those who have it least.

Restorative, Reparative, and Living Economy Projects.

We support collective organizing, somatic and spiritual approaches, and the practical economic experiments and models needed as we face ecological collapse and economic and social transition.

Our Growing Team.

We come from social, climate, and environmental justice organizing, philanthropy, and nonprofit backgrounds. Our approach is rooted in nuanced accountabilities and relationships with communities, organizations, and social justice leaders that we serve.
