Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund
About CDFI
The CDFI Fund’s mission is to expand economic opportunity for underserved people and communities by supporting the growth and capacity of a national network of community development lenders, investors, and financial service providers. The CDFI Fund achieves its purpose by promoting access to capital and local economic growth in a number of ways, including directly investing in, supporting and training CDFIs that provide loans, investments, financial services and technical assistance to underserved populations and communities.
CDFI Certification
CDFI Certification is a designation given by the CDFI Fund to specialized organizations that provide financial services in low-income communities and to people who lack access to financing. CDFIs include regulated institutions such as community development banks and credit unions, and non-regulated institutions like loan and venture capital funds. To apply for CDFI Certification, your organization must submit an application to the CDFI Fund for review.
