    As an economic justice nonprofit we strive to promote an inclusive economy. To accomplish this, we: • Research, source or develop, and promote low-cost consumer friendly financial products and services for LMI households. • Build the capacity of community-based organizations to enhance the financial capabilities of their constituents. • Establish best practice standards for consumer-friendly financial services.

    About Us

    Community Financial Resources is a solution-provider. We see a world where everyone has the tools needed to have financial stability, protect their assets, and establish a foundation to build wealth. We promote economic justice and fairness by providing financial inclusion solutions based on the latest research, backed by our financial industry partners, and delivered by organizations representing the communities we serve.

    Founded in 2003, we take the best of both nonprofit and financial enterprises while remaining grounded in social justice. We are mission-driven and bring expertise from the business world. That’s why we are best suited to take on the challenges of the financial marketplace.
