Accelerator for America
Capital Campaign
Accelerator for America has raised $712,956 out of their goal of $1,000,000
About the Campaign
The United States is undergoing a period of dramatic demographic transformation and economic restructuring, which are combining to creating enormous income, wealth and health disparities both within and across cities, metropolitan areas and regions.
Today, many communities seem like nothing more than the physical manifestation of decades of disparate federal programs. Our goal is to create “Inclusive Growth” - economic growth that expands educational and employment opportunities, creates wealth, shares prosperity, and engages residents as co-creators and problem solvers.
Your support means everything!
How To Help
Opportunity Zones $100
Opportunity Zones are a new federal incentive introduced in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and are centered around the deferral, reduction, and elimination of capital gains taxes. They represent the latest in a long line of efforts to expand economic opportunities for places and people left behind. Opportunity Zones have the potential to attract hundreds of billions of dollars in private capital, making them one of the largest economic development initiatives in U.S. history.
Investment Prospectus $200
We created the Opportunity Zone Investment Prospectus Guide to enable cities and communities to communicate their competitive advantages, trigger local partnerships and identify sound projects that are ready for public, private and civic capital. Our aim is to help communities and investors get smarter and more precise about the broad range of investment possibilities that exist in Opportunity Zones and, literally, help make and shape markets where there are none.
Build Your Own $500
We provide a number of tools and guides to help your city develop its very own Investment Prospectus. Download our “Investment Prospectus Guide” and follow along. Once done, submit your guide to us and we’ll help fine tune it and ensure that you are providing all the right resources to maximize Opportunity Zones in your city.
