Who CRF Benefits

At Community Reinvestment Fund, USA we harness the capital markets to improve lives in inner city neighborhoods, remote Indian reservations, small towns and redeveloping suburbs across America. In addition to helping people in disadvantaged communities, we provide valuable services for community development lenders, foundations, socially-minded and institutional investors.

The capital CRF provides to its lending partners enables them to help people in distressed communities to--

• Create or preserve jobs
• Help low-wealth entrepreneurs start or grow businesses
• Finance decent, safe and affordable housing
• Provide opportunities for minority and women business owners and those they employ
• Improve community facilities to strengthen neighborhoods 
• Build charter schools, day care centers, community health services

Community-development lenders tap into alternative sources of capital, so they can extend their reach and fund as many projects as possible.

Social investors, foundations and others who provide financial support for social change maximize their impact, because CRF’s use of leveraging maximizes community impact.
