[The CDFI Fund is an] incredibly important economic development agent that helps all small businesses across the country to grow, create jobs, become bankable and strengthen our economy.

-Allison Kelly, ICA Fund, Oakland, CA

CDFIs are a vital source of capital for the small and micro businesses in our communities, businesses that typically aren’t at the scale to be served by the large banks. They create jobs, generate taxes and keep our communities and economy vibrant and strong.

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.
