Securing Our Future

We take great care to maintain reserves to protect investors’ money. Since 1987, our Social Impact Investment program has maintained a 100% repayment rate – plus interest – to our community of investors, and has made over $30 milion in loans to affordable-housing developers and nonprofits in need. Investments in our loan fund are not FDIC-insured nor are they tax-deductible charitable gifts.
