Catholic Finance Corporation was founded in 2000 to promote the growth and financial health of Catholic institutions in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Since our inception, CFC has developed into a full-service financial and management advisory firm assisting over 75% of the parishes and schools in the Archdiocese as well as the Archdiocese itself and other Catholic institutions. In addition, CFC manages a revolving loan fund which we use to assist parishes and schools in the Archdiocese with capital improvement projects. The income from the loan fund has allowed CFC to offer its advisory services at fees well below market rates and, in many instances, on a pro bono basis. CFC’s staff is comprised of seasoned experts in the areas of finance, banking, management and operations, accounting and parish and school finances and operations. Remaining alert to the ever-changing needs of our clients and market conditions, CFC prides itself on responding quickly to current challenges and delivering best-in-class service. We value our ability to offer independent advice and provide clear counsel, revealing options that our clients may not have otherwise considered. With a sincere desire to serve our clients and help them attain their goals, CFC is fiercely committed to protecting their interests with honesty and transparency. We strive to deliver true value. CFC works closely as a partner with our clients to provide sound professional advice and to design and execute plans that foster long-term viability and sustainability. For many Catholic institutions, CFC is the right partner for these times.

At the Family Housing Fund, we believe building a better Minnesota starts from the ground up- it starts with a place to call home. And it requires all of us, working together, to build a strong housing system that supports access to decent, affordable housing for everyone. When families have a decent, affordable place to call home, they have opportunities to build their own success stories and contribute to their communities. Established in 1980, the Family Housing Fund supports the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, the Metropolitan Council, and Minnesota Housing in their efforts to meet the region’s affordable housing needs. Originally created by The McKnight Foundation and the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, the Fund serves the entire Twin Cities seven-county metropolitan area. We work in a field with many peers, allies, and collaborative partners. We believe Family Housing Fund is different in three specific ways: 1) Big picture: our breadth in perspective and relationships throughout the Twin Cities region gives us an unmatched view of the housing system. 2) Bold influence: We use flexible organizational resrouces to convert new ideas into solutions that benefit families by identifying and exploring emerging issues, piloting market interventions, and embedding interventions for systems change. 3) Balanced perspective: We support all types of affordable housing and value everyone working on housing solutions. Our knowledge of housing-related markets and public policies lead to authentic and practical relationships. Our Goals: 1) Increase Supply- preserve and produce more units more cost effectively. 2) Expand Opportunities- ensure low- and moderate-income families have greater access to opportunities to live in healthy, affordable homes. 3) Activate Champions- establish a bench of housing champions to take coordinated actions toward housing solutions.
