Testimonials

Our Native communities are very close knit and culturally dependent upon the community to hold those sacred ways in place. Our communities need the CDFIs as they better understand and serve the community members in a way that is critical to the success of home ownership, small business support and primarily teaching the outside world’s credit system and how it affects each member. We strive to strengthen the financial wellbeing of our communities where government and the outside world falls short.

-Becky Albert-Breed, First Nations Community Financial, Black River Falls, WI

CDFIs are critical to driving real estate development in underserved communities and during challenging economic times. We have developed more than $100 M in projects using CDFI financing and it is a critical component to the capital stack, as well as important for delivering transformative projects to communities across the country.

-JoAnna Hicks, Element Commercial Real Estate, Minneapolis, MN

CDFIs provided necessary funding and support to communities, including small businesses. Economic opportunity is the path to a unified society.
