OFN Helps Captial Flow Where It Counts

Our Mission

Opportunity Finance Network (OFN)'s mission is to lead community development financial institutions (CDFIs) and their partners to ensure that low-income, low-wealth, and other underserved people and communities have access to affordable, responsible financial products and services. 

Core Purpose and Vision 

OFN exists to align capital with opportunity. This OFN's purpose. OFN will pursue this purpose for as long as it takes to achieve.

This is OFN's vision.
