CityFirst Enterprises

Overview:

City First Enterprises has always centered on growth: helping our neighbors grow their wealth as we grow the strength and vibrancy of our communities together. CFE, a nonprofit financial institution and certified CDFI, was founded in 1993 by community development leaders seeking to rectify the damage that years of discrimination, disinvestment, and redlining had done to people and communities of color in DC. With decades of experience as a CDFI we bring a unique mix of expertise, capital, and relationships to help address the region’s inequities.

Our Mission:

City First Enterprises believes that all people and communities transform their futures through equitable access to capital. To help make this a reality, CFE creates equitable financial solutions to support people and communities in achieving their economic goals.
