The Facilities Investment Fund is thrilled to announce the closing of our first predevelopment loan with DeKalb Brilliance Academy (DBA)! This $500,000 will enable DBA to conduct the necessary design and feasibility planning for their new facility, allowing them to grow enrollment and impact for their K-8 school in Decatur, GA. DBA has a deep commitment to academic excellence along with leadership development and community collaboration, defining a long-term path to the student’s impact in their communities.
Special thanks to Co-founder and Head of School Jocelyn Alter, DBA’s development consultants, Fay Rizzuto and Nick Perry of Level Field Partners, and our attorney Katherine (Bloom) Thomas at Macdonald + Macdonald PC. Lastly, a profound note of gratitude for our team Gabriel Diaz, Sean Mahoney, Annette High and Nick Alexander for their dedicated efforts through each step of the process.
This milestone represents a significant step forward in our mission to support the creation and expansion of high-quality educational facilities. By securing a predevelopment loan, schools like Dekalb Brilliance Academy have the essential financial resources to confidently move forward in bringing their facility visions to life.
At Civic Builders, we understand how crucial this initial funding is, and we're proud to support DeKalb Brilliance Academy in their journey to educational excellence.
