OFN Financing Program

Investing Capital in Economic Opportunity

The OFN Financing Program is a socially responsible investment that aims to bring in capital from corporate and philanthropic partners to individuals and communities in America that mainstream finance doesn’t reach.

The goal of the OFN Financing Program is to help close the wealth gap and accelerate the work of OFN member CDFIs serving rural, urban, and Native communities experiencing disproportionately high rates of persistent poverty and disinvestment. The Program supports CDFIs of different sizes, varying balance sheets, and operational capacities with low-cost, long-term debt and grant capital.

OFN is deeply grateful for the support of all our Financing Program corporate and philanthropic partners!
