The Fund’s purpose is to serve social impact-minded investors who will provide equity capital for workforce and affordable housing and economic development.  The strategic partnership between Ellavoz and NJCC allows them to provide investors with a deal flow for QOZ projects that meet rigid financial and social impact requirements as well as professional due diligence.
