Access to capital can determine whether an individual can successfully start a business, get an education or face difficult and unpredictable circumstances. Beyond the economic benefits to the individual, vibrant small businesses make strong communities. Education empowers and enables people to both realize their own potential and contribute to society. A bridge across difficult and unpredictable circumstances can be the difference to a family recovering from what life has thrown at them. What starts as a benefit for one quickly becomes a benefit for us all.
Fortunately, Free Loan Societies, Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), and other social enterprises are trying to bridge the gap by providing loans to those who would not otherwise have access to capital.
Craftsman Technology Group supports organizations and institutions that strengthen our communities and improve society as a whole. We work with organizations committed to ending hunger, reducing prisoner recidivism, resettling refugees, fostering self-sufficiency and other efforts aimed at the common good. We see socially responsible lending as a natural extension of our core mission.
Our Socially Responsible Lending services help build capacity in those organizations that build capacity in others.
