The U.S. Treasury awarded about $22 million to Oregon banks so that they may expand their services to underbanked communities. To help vulnerable groups in Oregon’s post-epidemic recovery, the federal government has allocated $22.3 million to seven financial institutions.<\/p>\n

On Monday, April 10, it was announced that more than 600 groups around the country will receive a total of $1.7 billion from the United States Treasury to aid in the rehabilitation of some of the nation’s poorest and middle-class areas.<\/p>\n

Officials have stated that the grants are crucial for economic growth since they help make housing more affordable and provide home loans to more people.<\/p>\n

Vice President Kamala Harris said in a Treasury statement, “When we invest in community lenders, we help build a future where all people – no matter who they are or where they start – have the resources they need to not only succeed but to thrive.”<\/p>\n

She highlighted the fact that this particular investment was the largest made by the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund since the commencement of the program in 1994.<\/p>\n

The money will enable the banks to expand their workforces, purchase cutting-edge equipment, and better serve their communities. Their request for the money had to be approved by the U.S. Treasury.<\/p>\n

The Treasury Department made the following observation on mission-driven financial institutions: “These mission-driven financial institutions specialize in delivering responsible capital, credit, and financial services to underserved communities.”<\/p>\n

The money can be used for anything from community facilities to commercial property to banking to aiding grassroots organizations to people buying their first homes.<\/p>\n

Six of Oregon’s seven grantees are credit unions. The lending fund, the other entity, got the lion’s share of the money.<\/p>\n

The Treasury Department Has Provided the Following Groups With Grants:<\/h2>\n
\n
Five million dollars for Astoria’s Craft3 Loan Fund<\/li>\n
Oregon’s Eugene-based Northwest Community Credit Union: $3.7 million<\/li>\n
Portland’s Point West Credit Union: $3,7 million<\/li>\n
Springfield, Illinois’ SELCO Community Credit Union: $3,7 million<\/li>\n
The $2.5 million that went to the Mid-Oregon Federal Credit Union in Bend<\/li>\n
$2.5 million to Albany’s Central Willamette Credit Union<\/li>\n
In Portland, $1.25 million goes to Ironworkers USA Federal Credit Union.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
