Removing barriers to critical community work
The Social Impact Investment Fund (SIIF) provides flexible financing to charities and nonprofits, with a focus on affordable housing, community spaces, and social enterprises.
We established SIIF to address the unique challenges non-profit and charitable organizations face in accessing traditional financing due to their organizational structures. These challenges often hinder their ability to achieve community impact.
SIIF has identified three priority areas for investment:
Financing for non-profit and charitable housing providers to support the development and delivery of affordable housing. Examples include construction loans, property acquisition loans, and bridge financing.
Support for non-profit and charitable organizations to access financing for program delivery, with specific support for purchasing buildings.
Loans and financing for non-profit social enterprises whose work aligns with Winnipeg Foundation’s priority areas.
