On Thursday, March 18th, nearly 100 CDFI leaders from the country joined for the CDFI Institute conference to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund. March 18 presented a time of reflection on the profound impact the CDFI Bill has had on underserved communities across America. Signed into law in 1994, this groundbreaking legislation has been a cornerstone in fostering economic empowerment, promoting entrepreneurship, and expanding access to capital and financial services where traditional banking institutions have faltered.
