A listing here is evidence, not an offer: confirm with the lender that it lends where you are and to borrowers like you. For your exact address, search your ZIP code in the finder.

Headquartered in Alaska, no service area stated here (3)

The CDFI Fund list (as of 21 Oct 2026) gives a headquarters address in Alaska. The pages we read name no county, town, region or statewide area in Alaska, or we have not read the lender's website yet; where a lender states an area elsewhere or nationwide, it is shown on its row. Not found does not mean they do not lend here.

Say they lend nationwide (40)

Their website says they lend across the United States and does not exclude Alaska. Source: Lender websites, read 29 Oct 2026–4 Nov 2026.

Only CDFIs that hold an active CDFI Fund award (CDFI Program, Native American CDFI Assistance or the CDFI Rapid Response Program) report these transactions, so this is not all lending by the certified CDFIs on this page. The Fund masks which CDFI made each loan, so we cannot say which lender listed here made them.
