Testimonials

CDFIs are filling in gaps in the capital markets that make financing more widely accessible and contribute to greater economic prosperity for all.

-Jennifer Talansky, Nonprofit Finance Fund, New York, NY

True core CDFIs are the leaders and support mechanisms in rural communities. They are the local trusted partners that positively impact individuals, companies and communities to build equity and hope into areas that are difficult to develop.

-Lori Moen, GROW SD, Sisseton, SD

I am a Board Member of a Native American CDFI that serves Wabanaki Tribes and tribal members in Maine. It’s been quite concerning of the number of threats to our services by the Trump Administration. My hope is that these threats are no longer a hinderance to our daily services particularly the issue of federal funding freeze.
