Our Impact
Building Stronger Neighborhoods Together
At the Neighborhood Community Development Fund, we’re committed to building stronger neighborhoods and increasing equity throughout Allegheny County. We achieve this by supporting entrepreneurs (BIPOC, women, and low-income business owners) in communities that are overlooked by traditional sources of capital.
We provide capital, technical assistance and development support to help bridge the economic opportunity gap. We provide capital to underserved small businesses, affordable housing projects, and strategic commercial real estate projects in low-income neighborhoods across Allegheny County.
In our newest Impact Report, “Building Stronger Neighborhoods Together,” we share how we are Increasing Equity, Growing our Impact, and Building Stronger Neighborhoods to ensure small business owners and neighborhood projects receive the resources they need.
