We cannot abandon Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), who do measurable, positive work in our communities.
Thank you to our partners at Inclusive and CDBA for sharing data on CDFI Bank and CDFI Credit Union branch locations. In addition, about 100 of our CDFI Stories come from OFN’s story database.
We cannot abandon Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), who do measurable, positive work in our communities.
CDFIs help people with the big repairs, supporting jobs, and financing vehicles to get to work and shopping. These are all good for the economy as well for those individual families.
CDFIs are filling in gaps in the capital markets that make financing more widely accessible and contribute to greater economic prosperity for all.
We are a nonprofit Chamber of Commerce that does microlending for small businesses. We work with a CDFI bank and are trying to get CDFI certification.
