Testimonials

Fund program has been instrumental to Cooperative Federal’s work over the years, helping us reach more people and have a bigger impact on our local neighborhoods.

Renald Dupuis, Cooperative Federal Credit Union, Syracuse, NY

Since 2008, CDFI Sustainable Neighborhoods has lent over $600 million to New York State homeowners at risk of losing their homes to foreclosure. Our lending programs have stabilized tens of thousands of households, thus preventing family displacement that leads to personal financial hardship and expenditures of substantial government funding needed to prevent or address homelessness across New York’s rural, suburban, and urban regions.
