The goal of the Commonwealth Cornerstone Group ("CCG") is to fund projects that offer intrinsic catalytic opportunities for revitalization and are characterized by their communities as “cornerstone” initiatives within their renewal plans. CCF will provide loans and equity capital investments for: 1) business expansion; 2) mixed-use development; 3) for-sale housing; and 4) community facilities in low-income communities throughout the commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
