Pontiac, a city of approximately 60,000 residents, is home to an active network of leaders, nonprofits, business owners and residents who have long been working to enact positive social and economic change.

For decades, the city has experienced systemic disinvestment that resulted in widespread racial and economic disparities along with a deterioration of civic and nonprofit capacity.

The Pontiac Funders Collaborative supports organizations to align around shared goals for the community, strengthen their capacity to meet residents needs, and lead transformational projects that leverage other funders and partners.
