The Community Engagement Center (CEC) A civic-tech platform and community hub making local engagement easy

Our nonprofit civic-tech startup is redefining community engagement with an innovative platform that blends a digital app and physical spaces to make civic participation effortless, rewarding, and accessible to all. Designed with Sacramento’s unique culture in mind, our platform empowers everyday locals, businesses, and influencers to contribute to their communities in ways that fit seamlessly into their daily lives. From interactive kiosks to gamified digital engagement, we bridge the gap between online connectivity and real-world impact. We’re seeking funding and mentorship to develop our MVP, launch our first vending machine prototype, and scale our vision into a city-backed initiative. With the right support, we can transform how cities engage their residents and create a replicable model for nationwide civic innovation
