Testimonials

CDFIs are very good stewards of federal dollars, both in terms of leveraging other resources and by making loans and investments with great repayment history.

-Suzanne Anarde-Devenport, Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC), West Sacramento, CA

CDFIs are filling the deep credit gap encountered in many communities providing financing to small businesses, affordable housing, and community facilities, creating jobs and business opportunities and promoting revitalization.

-Mark Wilson, Coalition for Responsible Community Development, Los Angeles, CA

CDFIs fill a critical void in funding the development of affordable housing. They provide below market interest rates, have flexible terms, and can respond to critical funding needs with more flexibility than a traditional bank/credit union.

-Linda Braunschweiger, Housing Trust Fund Ventura County, Ventura County, CA
