Growing assets and wealth
through community investments

Investing where it matters most

At Nectar, we bring flexible capital, expert guidance, and lasting partnerships to communities often overlooked by traditional finance — standing with small business owners and homeowners as they build stability, opportunity, and generational wealth.

The best way to understand our impact is to hear directly from the people we serve. Watch the video below for their stories and to get a glimpse into what drives us.

The essential ingredients for thriving communities

Nectar Community Investments is a community based financial institution that deploys resources where they don’t usually go — to historically disinvested individuals and their communities. Through loans, investments, strategic advice and advocacy for small businesses and homeowners in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, we’re building generational wealth to close the racial wealth gap.

Supporting and uplifting entrepreneurs of color is how we drive socioeconomic progress.

Everyone should have the opportunity to improve the health, quality and sustainability of where they live.
