Raise Green

In this decisive decade of climate emergency, our shared future is at stake. We all want to do something to help, but it’s not always clear what to do. Climate impacts are already hitting every region of the world, affecting supply chains, and fueling conflicts, driving up energy costs and inflation. The good news is that we all have an opportunity to build a more healthy, just and sustainable world – if we work together, invest together, and grow the economy from the grassroots up. For the past hundred years, nine out of ten Americans have been left out of the lucrative opportunities to invest in private companies and local small businesses – but that changed a few years ago with regulators allowing for community financing. Americans have an estimated $5Trillion in bank deposits like checking and savings accounts collecting little to no interest. Now, thousands of Americans are already putting that money to work by investing as little as $100 into clean energy projects and climate companies on Raise Green. This lets them have the opportunity to make a financial return on their investments while they help reduce carbon pollution and strengthen community resilience.
