LiftFund

Dream It. Fund It.

The Mission of LiftFund is to provide credit and services to small businesses and entrepreneurs who do not have access to loans from commercial sources and to provide leadership and innovation to the microlending industry. LiftFund is a designated community development financial institution, or CDFI. CDFIs are working in neighborhoods across the United States to provide affordable, responsible credit, create and sustain jobs, and to stabilize communities. CDFIs finance community businesses, including small businesses, microenterprises, nonprofit organizations, commercial real estate, and affordable housing.

LiftFund's vision is to transform lives by opening doors, leveling the financial playing field and building a community of shared success through entrepreneurship. Our mission is to provide credit and services to small businesses and entrepreneurs who do not have access to loans from commercial sources and to provide leadership and innovation in the microlending industry. We believe that our work propels dreams, cultivates confidence, is a journey with our clients, and allows us to champion small business success.

We are dedicated to our customers – we listen, care and serve.
We lead with integrity – we are collaborative, accountable, and transparent.
We strive to be better – we innovate, grow, and excel in our products and services.
