Growth Partners Arizona is a dynamic Arizona-based Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) that assists nonprofits and small businesses across Arizona gain access to capital and technical assistance. We help forward-thinking nonprofit leaders provide valuable human and cultural services and economically underserved small business owners create economic opportunities in communities throughout the state.
Our mission is to open doors of financial opportunity, primarily to entrepreneurs of color, women, and immigrant entrepreneurs so they can build prosperous businesses and livelihoods for themselves and their families, while also strengthening our communities.
We do this by providing responsible financial services, lending to small businesses and nonprofits, developing real estate and promoting fair financial practices. While our work benefits communities of all kinds, our focus is on those who may be underserved by conventional lenders, including people of color, women, rural residents and low-wealth families and communities.
