The Future Cities Accelerator exists for one reason: to solve the challenges faced by poor or vulnerable populations living in U.S. cities. And to do that, we want to find the people most capable of solving these challenges and give them what they need to get the job done at scale.

We’re looking for 10 early-stage organizations (for-profit or non-profit) with the potential to benefit over 1 million lives each. If you’re one of them, we’ll give you $100,000 in grant funding + 9 months of intensive support. Let’s get to work....

There is little doubt that if the Future Cities Accelerator existed in major cities in the 20th century, many of the problems produced during tumultuous decades of division and discord would have been addressed to some degree, paving the way for a much more welcoming transition toward a 21st century Inclusive America, with greater access to opportunities and shared prosperity. Thankfully, Future Cities exists today and offers support for innovative approaches to solving big problems in our society. Our grandchildren will be proud.
