Nominations are open for the 2025 OFN Board Elections. This October, members will cast votes to fill four seats on the board at OFN41 in Washington, D.C.
We’re at a moment that demands bold, community-centered solutions – and CDFIs are leading the way. From creating jobs, to expanding access to affordable housing, and driving disaster recovery, CDFIs are being called on more than ever to address some of our nation’s most urgent challenges.
As we explore what’s now and what’s next, we seek leaders with a passion for OFN’s mission to help shape the future of the CDFI industry.
Do you know an innovative, forward-thinking leader? Is it you?
OFN members can nominate their ideal candidates for the board today. Requiring that two-thirds of the board be elected by OFN membership ensures that a variety of perspectives and voices guide the industry. We hope you take the time to submit a nomination.
