Kentucky Highlands provides access to capital to small businesses located in its economically distressed and persistent poverty rural Appalachian service area.
CDFI funds are frequently the only source of funding and lending available to small, scaled community-oriented development in Minneapolis. Without access to those opportunities companies like mine would not be able to accomplish our development goals and create mid-scale projects related to the arts and market rate affordable housing.
CDFIs are a lifeline for many small business owners who cannot get traditional financing from large banks.
This is greater than just the CDFI Fund. There are countless of small businesses that cannot get financial support in a traditional lending institution.
