CDFIs are not just banks. They are lifelines. Without them, thousands of small businesses-many in overlooked neighborhoods (urban and rural) – would never get access to capital, training, and the support they need to survive, let alone thrive.
CDFIs do vital work to support individuals and small businesses in our communities. Please make sure this funding continues!
CDFIs make banking accessible for entrepreneurs and small businesses that often lack the institutional knowledge and networks to feel confident in the lending space. CDFIs are a critical tool that helps diversify our economy.
