Project Wealth is an innovative asset-building program designed to help close the existing wealth gap. By concurrently eliminating debt and facilitating asset ownership Project Wealth maximizes participants’ total wealth and helps to secure a comfortable future! Participants can choose to invest in one of three asset goals: homeownership, micro-enterprise or post-secondary education.
Project Wealth is designed as a two year program, but those who qualify can participate in an accelerated one year program while receiving the same size match.
Project Wealth is part of the Funding Futures project, a partnership of the Massachusetts IDA Solutions Collaborative (MIDAS) and the United Way of Massachusetts Bay.
