Here is an overview of our community-owned business model.

Investment, Research and Training Body

Together Systems is the investment, training and research body of this model. Our main duty is to pool funds and utilize them to build wealth in our communities.

Community-Owned Cooperatives

These are investments in specific industries that are too significant to black community development to be controlled by outside forces. Industries such as energy, food and housing among others.

Worker Cooperatives

Secondary Investments are meant to further remove foreign bodies from our communities and replace them with locally-owned worker cooperatives. This includes retail and entertainment industries.

Hybrids/Injections

Together Systems

Investment, Research and Training Cooperative.

Current Systems

Investment capital is difficult to obtain for individuals who doesn’t come for a background of stable financial growth. This unequally effects African Americans due to historically setbacks. Currently, credit measurement and asset-backed loans are use legal for-profit processes such ask credit rating, work history, address, assets protections to uphold historical discriminatory pratices.

Our Systems

In order for African American to get ahead, a financial institution cannot be operated purely for-profit and much be operated for the benefit of the community they serve. This community financial resource must make investments in the community they serves with an understanding that the profits potential is lower then more well-off communities but the social impact if higher then other communities.

Community Fund

The community fund is a donor-advised fund, funded purely by parties interested in African-American community development. Many our our members contribute a small but consistant monthly donation. This fund is used strictly for Development Of Locally-Owned  Cooperative in African-American dominated community.
