Testimonials

The work of CDFIs is critical to supporting credit in underserved communities.

-Mark Kaufman, Neighborhood Impact Investment Fund, Baltimore, MD

CDFIs are an important part of the economic system and help deploy money to underserved communities, bringing needed resources such as affordable housing, health care, quality education, etc.

-Emily Andrews, Momentus Capital, Arlington, VA

As a CDFI, we support areas that have had historical underinvestment and see a transformative impact to those communities over time. The CDFI fund has an excellent private investment track record that accompanies the Treasury investment, leveraging the funds at an $8 or more for every $1 from the CDFI fund. This helps incentivize investment in these communities, bringing greater prosperity to all and putting all Americans to work that can access these programs.
