WASHINGTON—The Treasury’s Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) Fund has now opened its 2015 funding round and has $151-million available to certified CDFIs.
CDFI Fund grants are intended to build the capacity of CDFIs to serve low-income people and communities who lack access to affordable financial products and services, according to Treasury, which noted there are two types of grants available — financial assistance grants and technical assistance grants. The application deadline is Nov. 24.
