Alternatives Federal Credit Union Fact Sheet

CDFIs have assisted lower income people as they begin to work towards achieving the American Dream

-Jane Slabowski, member: Cooperative Federal credit Union, Syracuse, NY

Since 2008, CDFI Sustainable Neighborhoods has lent over $600 million to New York State homeowners at risk of losing their homes to foreclosure. Our lending programs have stabilized tens of thousands of households, thus preventing family displacement that leads to personal financial hardship and expenditures of substantial government funding needed to prevent or address homelessness across New York’s rural, suburban, and urban regions.

-Pamela Sah, Sustainable Neighborhoods/Center for NYC Neighborhoods, New York, NY

Invaluable support to people in our neighborhoods who want to build financial security–also to actually finance rehabbing vacant buildings and building new houses on vacant lots in our low/moderate income area.

-Phil Prehn, Syracuse United Neighbors (SUN), Syracuse, NY
