Charter Facilities Funding, LLC (CFF) will provide loans, investment, and financial services through strategic loan origination and financing alliances with key lending institutions, to support small and medium sized businesses (non-real estate for profit and non-profit entities) in distressed communities nationwide, which traditionally have very poor access to capital.
