Testimonials

CDFIs are absolutely critical to provide funds for residential and business loans which grow our economy.

Kerry Quaglia, Home HeadQuarters, Inc, Syracuse, NY

The work of CDFIs and the CDFI Fund is critical for so many small businesses, real estate developers, nonprofits, and communities across the United States.

Mary Stoick, Sunrise Banks, St Paul, MN

As a Native CDFI, funding from the CDFI Fund provides Native communities with access to capital that would otherwise be unavailable. Due to the complexities of tribal lands, traditional banks do not offer the same financial opportunities. Native CDFIs, supported by the CDFI Fund, are bridging this gap by providing equitable access to capital in ways that were previously unheard of.

Matthew Lewis, Four Directions Development Corporation, Orono, ME

CDFIs help reduce poverty in our community.
