Building Paterson Together

The Paterson Cooperation Fund is designed to operate as a community-owned organization supported by the financial contributions and participation of its members. The governance structure is intended to balance democratic participation from the community with clear and highly transparent leadership responsible for maintaining the stability and effective operation of the organization.

Members of the Paterson Cooperation Fund will play a central role in the governance of the organization. Individuals who contribute financially through the membership system will receive the right to participate in voting on major organizational and financial decisions. This structure is intended to ensure that the direction of the Paterson Cooperation Fund remains aligned with the interests and priorities of the community it serves.
