Testimonials

CDFIS help nonprofit organizations in my community.

-Peter Berrie, Faegre Drinker, Minneapolis, MN

After coming from several years working in for-profit corporations into a CDFI, I’ve come to appreciate the real benefits CDFIs provide to communities at all levels. CDFIs provide consumer, commercial, mortgage loans, housing development, community facilities when needed, and more creative solutions.

-Julia Nelmark, Midwest Minnesota Community Development Corporation (MMCDC), Detroit Lakes, MN

We want ALL entrepreneurs to have access to capitol to support their businesses. Especially those that may be deemed unbankable.

-Renay Dossman, NDC, Saint Paul, MN
