Testimonials

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.

-Cole Harvey, Grow America, Seattle, WA

CDFIs are an important to give access to those who can’t get access to capital from traditional banks and provides important Technical assistance to borrowers pre and post loan as needed.

-Lynn Cutler, WORC/EOF, Philadelphia, PA

CDFIs support the needs of small businesses and consumers in rural, suburban, and urban areas across the United States. The designation is key to legitimizing and elevating our work with banks and other leveraged investors who align with our industry to bring affordable capital to markets that need catalytic investments to sustain and grow small businesses. These businesses create jobs, provide goods and services, and pay taxes that build strong communities. We need to preserve and grow the CDFI Fund for all Americans.
