Bridging the Divide Between Sectors
Provident is a national nonprofit organization working across sectors to deliver essential community infrastructure.
Founded in 1999 by Steve Hicks, Provident was created to bridge the gap between government, finance, and impact. We pair capital access with social purpose, turning complex challenges into sustainable solutions that empower people and strengthen communities.

More than a Nonprofit.
More than a finance partner
Public, nonprofit, and private sectors don't always align — Provident lives within what can be described as the emerging "fourth sector", blending the strengths of each group to drive long-term, community-first outcomes, serving as a bridge between possibility and action.
