Blue State Café, a local coffee shop in Providence, RI near Brown University’s campus recently named the Capital Good Fund as one of the local causes that it supports. Every quarter, Blue State donates approximately 5% of its gross sales to a select number of local initiatives.
In other words, the more people that vote for the Capital Good Fund, the more money CGF will have to lend out to low income individuals in Providence!
This is a very exciting time for CGF, as this relationship with Blue State comes amidst our pilot phase and promises to help our organization build both financial and organizational capacity. We will be posting updates on our partnership with Blue State as the quarter progresses! Thank you all for supporting us, and if you live in the city of Providence, make sure to visit the Blue State Café located in the Brown University Bookstore at 244 Thayer St, Providence, RI 02912 to vote for CGF!
