Summary
KeyBank Community Development Lending & Investment provided a $2 million equity equivalent investment (EQ2) to the Neighborhood Community Development Fund (NCDF), a nonprofit Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) founded in Pittsburgh’s Northside more than 20 years ago. Proceeds from the KeyBank investment will help the organization support its “Color Me Business Initiative,” which focus on increasing access to capital, technical support, long-term resiliency for minority- and women-owned businesses (MWOB) and others who are facing the challenge of securing access to low-cost capital for business purposes. The initiative will especially target businesses that add to the vibrancy of their communities with amenities such as restaurants, childcare centers, barbershops/salons, food stores, and personal healthcare services. We want to thank the NCDF for its commitment and for making a difference in the communities we serve.
