to move Nashville forward
Moving Nashville Forward needs your help to create a guaranteed basic income pilot to support 100 families for one year in North Nashville.
A guaranteed basic income (GBI) provides regular cash payments with no strings attached to create a secure income base in a community.
The pilot will test the impact of a GBI through research overseen by the Center for Guaranteed Income Research while providing cash support to members of the community experiencing poverty.
We can disrupt poverty and create a more prosperous future in Davidson County using a GBI.
presented by Third Man Records
