We strongly support continued investment in CDFIs because they empower local economies, create pathways to homeownership and entrepreneurship, and help communities thrive. By ensuring the sustainability and growth of CDFIs, we can continue our mission to help members bank with dignity and build a stronger financial future for all.
We are a nonprofit Chamber of Commerce that does microlending for small businesses. We work with a CDFI bank and are trying to get CDFI certification.
I support CDFIs because they provide essential financial services to underserved communities, helping individuals and businesses access capital that traditional banks often overlook.
