Capital Incubator works with nonprofit organizations to plan and implement facilities development projects.

Many organizations don’t have the internal capacity, designated staff time or expertise to devote to the labor intensive and complex process required for facilities planning or for the development of a capital project. Capital Incubator helps to fill that gap.

Because each aspect of a capital project impacts on the other aspects, Capital Incubator offers organizations an integrated approach to facilities development. With an emphasis on financing issues, Capital Incubator provides services that address all project activities – planning, working with collaborative partners, real estate options, design and construction, short- and long-debt term financing, capital campaign design and implementation, and start-up.

Capital Incubator supports and guides nonprofit organizations to the successful completion of facilities development projects, while maximizing planning to ensure organizational readiness to take on growth, and leveraging all aspects of the project to build organizational capacity for long-term sustainability.

Capital Incubator provides the following services in California, primarily in the San Francisco Bay area:

• Financial Advisor: Education and assistance in obtaining both short term and long-term financing, with specialized assistance in New Markets Tax Credits and Tax Exempt Bond financings
• Overall capital project coordination or assistance, from initial real estate decisions through construction
• Capital campaign planning in partnership with campaign counsel to integrate capital campaign activities with predevelopment and financing activities
