CCLF finances projects across metropolitan Chicago that revitalize neighborhoods, promise high positive social impact, incorporate sustainable design practices, and have the potential to leverage significant additional investments from other sources.
Since 1991, CCLF has cultivated our unique approach to lending. CCLF has the patience to remain committed to borrowers through lengthy public financing approval processes. We are willing to partner with small, midsize and emerging groups on their first projects, or to take on difficult or unorthodox projects.
CCLF goes to great lengths to ensure that the projects we support succeed, providing free and low-cost technical assistance throughout the life of the loan. CCLF’s equity requirements are flexible and our loan-to-value ratios are more generous than many other lenders, even other CDFIs.

ACCION Chicago
ACCION Chicago is an alternative lending organization dedicated to providing credit and other business services to small business owners who do not have access to traditional sources of financing. By encouraging the economic self-reliance of microentrepreneurs throughout the Chicagoland area, ACCION Chicago strives to help businesses and communities grow.
The mission of ACCION Chicago is to provide credit to small businesses that do not have access to loans from commercial sources. ACCION Chicago lends from $500 to $25,000 with terms from 2 to 60 months. Collateral filing fees and a commitment fee are added to the loan requiring no out of pocket expense at the time of closing. We require loans to be secured by collateral which is valued at liquidation or trade-in prices. ACCION Chicago may also request a cosigner in some cases (Cosigner: A person who does not live in the applicant’s household and is not a principal member of the business. Cosigners must have good credit and the capacity to make the loan payment). ACCION Chicago never charges a fee for early payoff of a loan, and even encourages it.
