Our goal: All people benefit from an equitable economy as a result of systems and structures that enable their full participation.

Toward that end, the foundation supports work in the areas of:

1. Financial inclusion:

   systems and tools that promote broader economic participation, reduce poverty, and support economic development through accessible and appropriate financial products and services (such as bank accounts, credit, insurance, and payment systems) for traditionally underserved or excluded populations.

2. Structural reforms and innovation:

   policies, regulations, advocacy, and pilot programs that redress historical and systemic economic inequity.

Note: The Square One Foundation does NOT support neighborhood-based community development corporations for housing development.
