Testimonials

As a founding board member (1982) and original board member of this community development credit union, I urge you to continue funding CDFIs that have a vital role in our community with its current housing crisis.

-Michael Messina-Yauchzy, Syracuse Cooperative Federal CU, Syracuse, NY

CDFIs work results in invaluable benefits to communities, including jobs, housing, tax revenue, and vitality.

-Amy Szabo, Friedman Associates LLC, Iowa City, IA

CDFIs are very good stewards of federal dollars, both in terms of leveraging other resources and by making loans and investments with great repayment history.

-Suzanne Anarde-Devenport, Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC), West Sacramento, CA
