Testimonials

As a founding board member (1982) and original board member of this community development credit union, I urge you to continue funding CDFIs that have a vital role in our community with its current housing crisis.

-Michael Messina-Yauchzy, Syracuse Cooperative Federal CU, Syracuse, NY

Our local CDFI has been essential to supporting our organization, our members and so many people in our community who have struggled to access capital and financial services. They understand how to work with our communities and have assisted so many first time home-buyers and new businesses in getting on track and being financially stable. For many of our members this is where they’ve opened their first bank account and learned how to manage their finances.

-Jessica Maxwell, Workers Center of Central New york, Syracuse, NY

CDFIs do vital work to support individuals and small businesses in our communities. Please make sure this funding continues!
