The Community Bond: An Innovation in Social Finance

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BECOMING AN INVESTOR IN CSI PLEASE GO HERE.

Two years ago, we had the outlandish idea that we could raise $2 million toward the purchase and renovation of a 36,000 square foot building, jam pack that space with world-changing people and projects, all while providing our investors with a triple bottom line return - in the span of a whirlwind 8 months. Well, we did it! And now we want to help others do the same.

So we distilled everything we know about Community Bonds into a do-it-yourself guide. Inside, you'll find a detailed retelling of what we did, how we did it, why we did it, and more. You'll also gain insight into your own financing challenges, be able to identify whether community bonds are the right fit for you, how to launch your own bond offering, and of course, how to turn your supporters into investors. This publication is ideal for nonprofits, charities, social entrepreneurs, policy makers, public servants, and anyone else interested in innovative social finance strategies. It's also a fascinating read.
