The Florida Community Loan Fund is a community development financial institution. It provides capital and technical assistance to qualifying organizations with insufficient access to capital from conventional lending sources.
Established in 1994, the Loan Fund is among the fastest growing funds of its kind in the country and a pioneer in the community development finance field in Florida. It is certified as Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) and as a Community Development Entity (CDE). As a nonprofit organization, the Loan Fund has a 501(c)(3) designation under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and is registered to solicit charitable contributions under the laws of the State of Florida.
Community nonprofit organizations across the state are eligible to borrow from the Loan Fund. Loans are made exclusively to non-profit organizations involved in affordable housing, economic development and essential social services in urban and rural low-income communities throughout Florida.
Our loans contribute to community change and finance Florida solutions to significant community development needs and opportunities by supporting projects of high social impact.
Socially responsible investors and donors of all kinds work with the Loan Fund to provide the necessary capital resources.
Together, we meet the needs of low-income people and communities to significantly strengthen social and economic justice and opportunity throughout Florida.
