Lending where it matters most

We are a designated Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), giving us the opportunity to support low-income communities through special lending programs and federal grant funds.
Since being certified as a CDFI in 2022, we have received two CDFI grants totaling $1.46 million. We match the grant funds and disburse them as loans to individuals and businesses in historically underserved communities. We are passionate about sparking economic growth through CDFI loans as a way to create positive change in our communities. Our CDFI grant programs:
- Support household stabilization
- Provide affordable financing for members struggling with previous predatory auto loan rates, payday loan debt cycles, and high interest debt
- Provide inclusive banking solutions for low-income households
