Testimonials

The work we do in underbanked and underserved Rural Appalachia is important to bring our constituents forward.

James Caudill, Redbud Financial Alternatives, Inc., Hazard, KY

CDFIs are essential to ensuring all communities and residents have access to safe, affordable credit when traditional financial institutions are not able to do so. These market-based institutions know their communities needs best and leverage private sector investment. Building bridges between the public and private sectors is what CDFIs do well and we need to preserve the expertise of these organizations by ensuring a robust funding of $324 million for the CDFI Fund.

Victoria E. Stein, Otis Street Advisors LLC, Newton MA, MA

When traditional financing felt out of reach, Access CDFI offered more than a loan. We provided the support, encouragement, and confidence to help bring her vision to life.

Owner, Ego Tripp Salon, Las Vegas, NV

CDFI funds are frequently the only source of funding and lending available to small, scaled community-oriented development in Minneapolis. Without access to those opportunities companies like mine would not be able to accomplish our development goals and create mid-scale projects related to the arts and market rate affordable housing.
