CDFIs help make our world a better place.
Thank you to our partners at Inclusive and CDBA for sharing data on CDFI Bank and CDFI Credit Union branch locations. In addition, about 100 of our CDFI Stories come from OFN’s story database.
CDFIs help make our world a better place.
The impact that CDFI credit unions can make in lower income areas by providing financial tools for the community raises the financial independence of individuals in that area and then lessens the amount of ongoing aid that needs to be provided by the government directly to those communities.
We chose a mobile home because of the convenience and ease of one-floor living. The result of our move is that we now have a place that meets our physical and social needs as we age… Working with Capital for Change [CDFI] was quite the experience! What an excellent program that makes housing affordable to all!
Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) are essential to supporting businesses that serve as the backbone and cultural foundation of their communities.
