Testimonials

CDFIs provide extraordinary support to many people who otherwise would not be able to access ordinary banking and credit opportunities. They are frequently located in banking deserts”

-Sam Eschenbrenner, Syracuse Cooperative Federal Credit Union, Syracuse, NY

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.

-David Wise, Nebraska Enterprise Fund, Omaha, NE

CDFIs provide an important unique opportunity support communities by creating opportunities for underbanked companies and individuals to pull themselves up by their bootstrap by creating new businesses, housing and strengthening financial composites

-Kevin FItzgerald, OppFund, East Lansing, MI
