The better, faster way to maximize social impact.
Pensacola Community Action Network.

Accelerating Positive Social Change

Many people have amazing ideas for improving their community but don’t have the administrative skills or financial knowledge needed to bring their ideas to fruition. Pensacola Community Action Network, also known as PensacolaCAN, accelerates positive change in our community by supporting leaders dedicated to making a social impact. We serve as an incubator for new projects and as a mentor to existing projects.

As a fiscal sponsor organization, PensacolaCAN allows projects, large or small, to begin raising money immediately by having a credible financial partner, known and trusted in our community. PensacolaCAN is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization which has supported projects raising over $200,000 since 2015.
