The Black Cooperative Impact Fund (BCIF) is a 501(c)(3) community-based organization that provides interest-free microloans to small businesses committed to advancing Black economic empowerment. Guided by our vision of closing the racial wealth gap, we serve as a dedicated, reliable, and sustainable source of capital — with a focus on businesses across Southern California.

HOW THE FUND WORKS

01

Donors give support: One-time, monthly, or annual gifts of any amount make a meaningful difference

02

Recipients grow their business: Direct access to startup and growth capital helps dismantle systemic barriers
