The national network of CDFIs investing in opportunities benefitting low-income communities in the U.S.
OFN’s work is bounded by two values that anchor all that we do:
Justice: Every facet of our work should be directed toward and reflect an unwavering commitment to fair and equal access to, opportunity in, and responsibility for social, economic, and political life. For us, justice is a unifying value.
Excellence: The people and communities CDFIs serve have a right to expect excellence, and we have a responsibility to provide it. A commitment to excellence is a statement of respect for our customers, investors, funders, staff, Board, and Members.
OFN’s mission through 2025 is to lead CDFIs and their partners to ensure that low-income, low-wealth, and other disadvantaged people and communities have access to affordable, responsible financial products and services.
Our core purpose is to align capital with social, economic, and political justice. That is the reason Opportunity Finance Network exists.
