LIIF's Community Facilities team recently closed on a $3.71 million loan -- part of a $14.83 million loan to support the construction of the Boys and Girls Club of Puerto Rico’s new Oasis Hub in San Juan. This 134,000 square foot, mixed-use development will house the Vimenti Alliance Public School, Vitalus health clinic, workforce development programs and family wrap-around services. Adjacent to a Head Start program, the hub aims to bolster educational and economic outcomes in a historically excluded community where 87% of families live below the poverty line. Partnering with Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), Nonprofit Finance Fund and Raza Development Fund, alongside Civic Builders and Capital One, this project leverages various funding sources including Community Development Block Grants and ESSER funds. This initiative marks a significant milestone for the community, increasing capacity for over 650 students and annually providing essential services to thousands.

An example of the success of our #racialequity in #lending. Congrats, Juan Barahona.
For real estate developers who experience disinvestment, predevelopment and acquisition financing is some of the hardest to acquire, and is the most pivotal in bringing developments to life. Getting the project started is one thing; paying off the loan in less than a year is another! We are happy to share that Juan Barahona, principal at SMJ Development and a participant in our Growing Diverse Housing Developers program, has successfully repaid the predevelopment and acquisition loans from Capital Impact Partners and Low Income Investment Fund in less than one year! These loans helped SMJ acquire a vacant site located at 68-19 Woodhaven Blvd, Rego Park, NY that will create 118 mixed-income housing units. This impressive achievement demonstrates how the #GDHD program empowers real estate developers nationwide and champions the construction of affordable housing in underestimated communities. We are thrilled to see the tangible results of this program and look forward to supporting more developers in creating diverse housing options nationwide. #GDHD is implemented by Capital Impact Partners, Low Income Investment Fund, and Reinvestment Fund and funded by Wells Fargo.

LIIF has conducted an in-depth landscape analysis of the current state of the #childcare ecosystem in Georgia. Read report @ https://lnkd.in/gecxwea5. Key takeaways: >Child care providers find local regulations confusing and hard to navigate. >Local elected officials know child care is an issue but don't know what they can do to help. >Economic development efforts across the state have not taken child care into account but recognize it is an issue that needs to be addressed. DYK: LIIF's child care model comprises facilities fund management, capacity building and advisory services. Learn more @ https://bit.ly/4ceiBl0. #CDFI #CDFIs #communitydevelopment
