Civic Builders sits at the nexus of community development and education. Dedicated to giving every child the chance to attend a great school, Civic Builders partners with the nation's best educators to finance and build public charter school buildings. Our model for school development has earned numerous accolades and has been adopted by other nonprofit organizations across the country. We are an experienced team of real estate, finance, and development professionals dedicated to delivering inspirational educational facilities at affordable rates. We are a highly entrepreneurial organization that is growing quickly and our dedicated and talented team has positioned us to: • Invest more than $600M into low-income communities: we have developed a million square feet of real estate, representing 27 schools that serve over 13,000 students in the highest need neighborhoods, such as East Harlem, the South Bronx, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and Newark, NJ. • Receive $78M of New Markets Tax Credits over three award rounds and access funding from the U.S. Department of Education. • Partner with a leading national K-12 foundation on a $100M loan fund to provide low-interest capital, at an increased scale, to charter schools that are creating and expanding facilities. Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Civic Builders believes that diversity, in all its forms, enriches society and our organization. Because we support students in the highest need neighborhoods, we have a particular charge to understand our schools and their communities. When our staff, board, and partners reflect, value, and embrace the voices and perspectives of those most impacted by what we do, we have a deeper understanding and connection to their needs and more effectively achieve our aspiration of improving lives, revitalizing communities, and helping children receive the education they deserve.
