The CDFI Coalition is pleased to share some long-awaited good news for the CDFI industry. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has announced awards for multiple CDFI Fund programs, including FY 2025 awards under the Community Development Financial Institutions Program (CDFI Program), Bank Enterprise Award (BEA) Program, and Small Dollar Loan (SDL) Program.
This announcement represents an important and very positive step forward for CDFIs and the communities they serve. These resources will support the continued work of CDFIs to expand access to capital and financial services and create economic opportunity in communities across the country.
The CDFI Coalition is incredibly grateful to our members, partners, and advocates across the industry who have worked together throughout this process. Thank you to everyone who stayed engaged, shared information, participated in advocacy efforts, and continued to elevate the importance of the CDFI Fund and its programs. The collaboration and commitment of the CDFI community have been invaluable.
We are excited to celebrate this important milestone together and look forward to seeing these resources put to work in communities nationwide.
