Cinnaire partnered with NCALL Loan Fund and True Access Capital to form the Equitable Wilmington CDFI Collaborative, created to promote inclusive growth in Wilmington’s West, East and Northeast neighborhoods and stimulate economic opportunity and mobility.
This Collaborative is supported by JPMorgan Chase through its PRO Neighborhoods initiative.
Equitable Wilmington provides lending resources and technical assistance for transformative projects such as building affordable housing, community facilities, and supporting small businesses in these key neighborhoods.
The goal of the Equitable Wilmington CDFI Collaborative is to foster social equity by providing community solutions, access to capital, and resources to allow all Wilmington neighborhoods to thrive. The collaborative is comprised of three local mission-driven lenders dedicated to fostering small business growth; developing safe, affordable homes; and supporting essential community facilities in the neighborhoods surrounding Wilmington’s Central Business District.
