Investment and support from banks, insurance companies, religious investors, foundations and the federal government make it possible for IFF's loan program to grow. Favorable pricing enables IFF to maintain below-market rates. Leadership in research and public policy is funded by foundation and corporate grants.
IFF offers financial partners a sound investment, high leverage and community impact. Investors in IFF's Loan Program support lending throughout Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, and Wisconsin.
New investments include:
- In September 2010, the Communities at Work Fund™ invested $20 million in IFF. This highly competitive program was formed in response to the recession by Citibank, Calvert Foundation, and the Opportunity Finance Network.
- In May 2010, JPMorgan Chase provided IFF with a low-interest loan of $9.5 million with capital raised through the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program. IFF will use the funds to provide loans to nonprofits in Indiana, Wisconsin, and Illinois.
- In December 2010, IFF received a $3 million Program Related Investment from The Walton Family Foundation for choice and charter school lending in Milwaukee. This brings the Foundation’s total support to IFF to $8,765,425.
- In September 2011, IFF received $8.3 million from the US Department of the Treasury Small Business Loan Fund to support small business lending.
