CDFIs support small businesses in ways that traditional financial partners are unable to. From flexible financing that supports growth, stabilize operations, and boosts local employment, to providing advice in all areas of business managements, to being there for the business owners as humans whenever needed. CDFIs are integral to the well-functioning of the financial system and of the economy as a whole.
The CDFI funds are critical to supporting entrepreneurs start up new small businesses which are the backbone of our economy. Without this funding, new jobs cannot be created and local tax bases will not grow. Please support small businesses!
