Mountain Community Capital Fund Operating Committee (In-person) (Jun 5, 2026)

The upcoming Mountain Community Capital Fund meeting will center on the fund's performance and potential new business opportunities. Discussions will include a review of loan program activity, demographic data related to borrowers, and updates on various initiatives like the Black Business Alliance. A key item will be a vote on a new loan application for a physical therapy startup in Asheville, which could impact local job creation and access to healthcare services.

A significant decision expected is the approval or denial of this new loan, which will directly affect the startup's ability to launch and provide services. The committee will also continue discussions regarding a potential grant from Dogwood Health Trust, which could provide additional resources for the fund and its borrowers. Finally, they will begin planning a strategic workshop to define future goals, so community members interested in the fund's long-term vision are encouraged to participate.
