Testimonials

I have chaired our local board and our foundation is extremely supportive of the difference [CDFI Fund awards] have made in the Dayton community!

-Michael M Parks, The Dayton Foundation, Dayton, OH

CDFIs help community-focused organizations access capital for traditionally underserved communities.

-Matthew Cook, Matthew Cook Consulting, Columbus, OH

As a CDFI, we are able to provide loans and investments to borrowers for projects that improve the quality of life in our community’s low to moderate income census tracts. Frequently, these transactions are not supported by financial institutions directly under competitive terms and conditions that we as a CDFI can make.

-Dan Kane, Dayton Region New Market Fund, Kettering, OH
