Social Entrepreneurs
Urban Array is a minority-led restorative investment nonprofit that invests in entrepreneurs and nonprofit founders of color, redirecting money, energy, and creativity into divested communities.
Contributor Members
We leverage the power of technology with collaborative action to mobilize people everywhere to educate themselves, pool resources, and create thriving microeconomies in historically divested neighborhoods.
Impact Investors
The Restorative Investment Fund (RIF) aims to open new avenues for individual and institutional investors to fund disenfranchised and underserved minority communities globally.
OUR WORK
Minority communities have notoriously been shut out of
economic growth for generations, to the detriment of all people.
We're on a mission to change that.
Our vision is of an equitable and sustainable world in which people everywhere are empowered to take care of their families, hire members of their communities, and lead the way to create sustainable economic growth and generational wealth.
Revolutionize Community Development
Enabling communities with the processes and tools to self-mobilize, share information, establish best practices, find resources and accurately measure impact.
Promote Equitable Value Sharing
Empowering people to use the digital economy to improve themselves and their communities

About Us
Build Yourself.
Grow Your Community.
Urban Array is a techno-economic movement and social enterprise that leverages technology and social networks to put power in the hands of people to lift up and support themselves.
We are building a global “Restorative Investment” platform that provides the infrastructure necessary to undergird entrepreneurs emerging from and working to sustain the growth of distressed local economies while opening channels for the broader community to reinvest in disinvested economic centers around the world, with or without capital.
Make Lasting Impact with Your Investments
Divested communities have a wealth of untapped potential. Urban Array enables investors to make impact in communities in need, while restoring community wealth. Not extract from it.
Urban Array is a 501 (c)3 Nonprofit committed to resolving the problems associated with economic exemption and inequality by empowering entrepreneurship and economic ownership in formerly divested communities.
