Boston Ujima Project Is Investing In A Community Land Trust
If there’s one thing Ruby Reyes loves more than learning, it’s protecting and supporting opportunities for her community to learn together.
She gets to do both as part of the Boston Ujima Project’s member fund management committee, which reviews potential investments for the community-controlled social investment fund focused on uplifting Boston’s BIPOC communities. Each investment requires a majority vote for approval from the Boston Ujima Project’s voting membership, which currently consists of 240 people who identify as working-class or person of color or both, either living in Boston or have been displaced from Boston.
The Boston Ujima Project has made 10 investments so far.
