Your real odds
CommunityWorks has deployed over $7.3 million in micro and small business loans since 2008, serving more than 1,000 clients through their business center.
As a CDFI, they are designed to serve borrowers who face barriers with conventional lenders, so approval is more accessible than a traditional bank, but this is still a loan with underwriting criteria and not a guaranteed award.
