Last week, leaders from 20 organizations across 12 states and Puerto Rico wrapped the Lending Learning Lab.
Together, they’ve already helped reach more than 9,400 small businesses—and deployed over $5.3 million in their communities.
That’s what expanding access to capital looks like on the ground.
We’re excited to see what they build next.
Congratulations to our graduates!

Families in Brighton Park used to travel miles just to see a doctor.
Today, care is right in their neighborhood.
With early support from RDF, Esperanza Health Centers was able to turn an empty lot into a full-service clinic now serving 62,000 patients each year.
