Testimonials

CDFIs work results in invaluable benefits to communities, including jobs, housing, tax revenue, and vitality.

-Amy Szabo, Friedman Associates LLC, Iowa City, IA

CDFIs make our urban and rural economies healthy working alongside financial institutions and providing that responsible capital!

-Wendy K. Baumann, WWBIC, Mequon, WI

Our Native communities are very close knit and culturally dependent upon the community to hold those sacred ways in place. Our communities need the CDFIs as they better understand and serve the community members in a way that is critical to the success of home ownership, small business support and primarily teaching the outside world’s credit system and how it affects each member. We strive to strengthen the financial wellbeing of our communities where government and the outside world falls short.
