Common Capital is a mission-driven, nonprofit community loan fund working to increase access to capital for small businesses. With support from local funders, investors, and partners, as well as state and federal resources, we make loans to small businesses that are not able to obtain business capital from conventional lenders, such as a bank. As a community development lender, we are focused on helping businesses owned by low-to-moderate income individuals, people of color, women and immigrants obtain the capital they need to grow, create and retain jobs, and produce other community benefits. All Common Capital borrowers receive free business assistance and coaching.
