CDFIs and How They Can Help Your Business! 

Accessing local resources is an integral part of a successful small business growth plan. CDFIs (Community Development Financial Institutions) are lenders with a mission to provide fair, responsible  financing to their communities that mainstream finance doesn’t traditionally reach. In this webinar we’ll hear from four CDFIs, one from each region of the country. Business owners will learn more about the programs and resources available to them and how to prepare to work with a CDFI.
