CDFI & Nonprofit

Mission-driven CDFIs and nonprofit lenders. 8 institutions listed. Availability and terms are set by each lender.

Listed alphabetically. Listings are informational, compiled from public sources (data compiled 2026-11-04; not a per-lender verification of terms or state availability), and do not imply endorsement or affiliation; names are used only to identify each institution. No listing is sponsored today — paid placements, if any, will be labeled "Sponsored". Marketplaces and intermediaries are labeled because they do not lend directly. LendSonar is not a lender or broker and does not guarantee approval. Disclosures
