The Low Income Investment Fund (LIIF) is a prominent nonprofit community development financial institution (CDFI) dedicated to mobilizing capital and fostering strategic partnerships to expand access to crucial funding for underserved communities across the United States. LIIF's core activities involve investing, partnering, and advocating to ensure that all Americans benefit from communities characterized by opportunity, equity, and well-being.
The organization focuses its innovative capital strategies and lending tools on key areas, including affordable housing, early care and education, and community facilities. As a real estate lender, LIIF provides flexible capital solutions designed to fill gaps left by traditional financial systems, offering products such as national funds, New Markets Tax Credits, and Low Income Housing Tax Credits through its affiliate, NAHT.
Beyond direct lending, LIIF adopts an expansive approach to the early care and education sector, providing fund management, capacity-building, and advisory services. This investment aims to create a "triple halo effect" by supporting high-quality early education for children, fostering thriving small businesses, and generating economic opportunities for families. LIIF also complements its capital strategies with programs and partnerships that respect community agency and leverage existing assets to meet the needs of historically underserved populations.
Through its comprehensive efforts, LIIF is committed to driving significant investments, with a goal of $5 billion between 2020 and 2030, to build, protect, and preserve affordable homes and create vibrant communities nationwide.
