Prosperity, Powered by People.

Helping citizens recognize the political and economic power of our consumer dollars — to improve quality of life for everyone.

Vision

To envision a world without underserved communities — where people are united beyond party lines and hold economic and political power alongside the wealthy and corporations.

Mission

  • Redirect a portion of our consumer spending into donations that help establish community-owned credit unions in underserved areas.

  • Open STEM centers in marginalized communities to expand opportunity and strengthen the U.S. workforce.

  • Establish fresh food stores every 2-4 miles in food deserts to fight diet-related diseases disproportionately impacting Black and Brown communities.

  • Build community-based medical centers and forward-thinking, affordable housing.

  • Support the local production of essential goods and services to promote self-reliance and community wealth.

  • Create a powerful people’s lobbying bloc driven by polling and surveys — to ensure our needs and voices shape policy.

Power of Many

Civic Titans and The People’s Equity Fund are citizen-powered and collective investment initiatives committed to tackling systemic inequality through community-led development. By pooling contributions—from grassroots donations of $5 to philanthropic gifts, mission-aligned partnerships, and grants—alongside our collective political influence, we can fund first-class Medical Centers, STEM Hubs, Affordable Housing, and urban farms.

Why We Exist

Unorganized citizens across political lines are losing both political and economic power. Yet in 2023, we collectively spent $19 trillion on goods & services—our consumer dollars fuel corporate influence at our peril. Our tax dollars sustain systems & politicians that often ignore—or work against—the real needs of everyday people.

“Corporations spend hundreds of millions annually on H1-B sponsorship to import skilled workers. Civic Titans want to build STEM centers and train a competitive workforce—ultimately strengthening the U.S. economy from within.”
