About Enterprise Community Investment
Enterprise Community Investment Inc’s recent giving is anchored by very large general-support grants to Enterprise Community Partners Inc in Columbia, Maryland, including $13,158,365 in 2023, $5,714,091 in 2024, and $6,697,862 in 2025. That pattern points to an organization funding through sustained, high-dollar support rather than a long tail of small awards. The foundation’s mission is to make home and community places of pride, power, and belonging, and its program menu shows how that mission is put into practice: housing preservation, aging in place, tribal housing, resilience, and technical assistance are all part of the portfolio. The funder also makes program-related investments, which reinforces a financing-oriented approach to housing and community development. Recent program structures range from cohort-based preservation work to scale and innovation grants for older adults with lower incomes, suggesting that Enterprise Community Investment Inc funds both direct program implementation and field-building activities. Across the recent grants listed here, the largest awards sit alongside smaller participation and capacity-building grants, indicating a mix of substantial operating support and targeted program support within a local Maryland-centered grantmaking pattern.
What Enterprise Community Investment Funds
Housing preservation appears prominently in the foundation’s active programs. In the Mid-Atlantic Preservation Academy, selected organizations receive cohort-based training, peer learning, technical assistance, and grant funding to preserve small- and medium-multifamily housing. The California Tribal Housing Accelerator Academy adds a tribal-housing lens, pairing technical assistance and training with a $3,000 participation grant per tribal organization. Aging in place is another clear strand. Through the Thome Aging Well Program — Grantmaking, Enterprise supports older adults with lower incomes so they can age safely and securely in their homes and communities. Related RFPs seek a creative partner to synthesize stories and lessons from that program for field-facing communications and dissemination. The foundation also backs resilience and tribal housing capacity. The Southwest Tribal Resilience Academy — Resilience Capacity Grant funds eligible tribal entities, CDCs, and CHDOs that have participated in the academy to implement community-driven solutions in tribal communities.
