Layer 5: Perpetual Cycles

Definition

The fifth functional layer enabling infinite-horizon operation through capital recycling. When beneficiaries pay forward or loans are repaid, capital returns to the system for redeployment, creating perpetual impact from finite initial capital.

Example

Trawalla Foundation's scholarship fund operates as Layer 5: graduates contribute 5% of salary for 5 years after reaching income threshold, recycling capital to fund future scholars. A $10M fund has deployed $27M over 15 years through recycling.
