The programs of the CDFI Fund play a vital role in expanding our capacity to create economic opportunities for members in CA-18 and CA-19. Support from the CDFI Fund through awards and investments has enabled us to expand our micro lending platform and affordable housing opportunities with support from FA, RRP, and ERP awards.
Supporting Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) is crucial for economic growth and access to capital in underserved areas. CDFIs provide essential financial services, stimulating local economies by offering affordable loans to small businesses and nonprofits. Increased funding for CDFIs ensures expanded outreach and impact, promoting economic stability and development. Enhanced budgetary support for CDFIs is a strategic investment that benefits the nation’s economic infrastructure.
CDFIs create impactful changes in communities and provide catalytic growth and changes which provide jobs, particularly in low and moderate in come areas.
