​

​Since 1998, CCA has helped organize CDFIs and STEM education projects in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and the West African regions. Our work has been featured in U.S. mainstream media and international papers, including the Philadelphia Business Journal -www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/stories/1997/05/12/story2.html, the American Banker - https://www.questia.com/magazine/1G1-65508227/pnc-houses-and-funds-a-credit-union-in-philly-shares, and the Liberian Observer -  https://www.liberianobserver.com/opinion/commentaries/racing-against-time-saving-fatu-and-others-from-sexual-abuse-and-socioeconomic-vulnerability-in-liberia/.   Albeit tiny, we help build intervention mechanisms that bridge racial and gender inequities. 

​The following are our in-house and collaborative projects:
  • Women Capital International (WCI) is our emerging Philadelphia, PA-based CDFI project, aimed at supporting promising women entrepreneurs and socioeconomic-impact ecosystems. The WCI project is a tiny but significant response to the wealth-building challenges facing women, a collaborative response that brings together the CDFI expertise of Community Capital Advisors (CCA), the venture capital knowledge-hub of the CDVCA - www.cdvca.org, the female-focused sustainable development prowess of Earth Forward Group (EFG) - www.earthforwardgroup.com, the resolved of highly talented young women, and the goodwill of concerned individuals & institutions from the spheres of the common good.
On a limited basis, we still provide technical assistance to community-based direct service organizations, such as our ongoing technical support to People for People, Inc - www.peopleforpeople.org, Faith Immanuel Lutheran Church/All For All Agency - www.afaagency, and Multicultural Community Family Services - www.multiculturalcommunityfamilyservides.org.
