The goal of this innovative thinking is to create a nonprofit sector that has the financial strength needed to provide excellent services to the community.
NFF is bringing about this change by:
- Providing organizations with sustaining loans they might not be able to secure from other sources
- Sharing our long-term experience on healthy financial planning for nonprofits
- Providing individualized consultation on the financial state of affairs at a given organization

Since its founding in 1980, NFF has helped more than 8,000 nonprofits implement sustainable growth and thereby improve their capacity to serve their communities.
