Testimonials

In Syracuse’s depressed economy, CDFIs have been a lifeline for aiding some of the most financially challenged residents and businesses. My credit union has leveraged CDFI funds to lift many households out of poverty, and we need this to continue.

CDFIs help reduce poverty in our community.

-E. Scott Brown Jr, All Faiths Food Pantry, Syracuse, NY

The CDFI industry has grown thanks to broad bipartisan support over the last 25 years. We’re counting on Congress to keep this essential economic development engine moving forward.
