Clearinghouse Community Development Financial Institution

Lake Forest, CA (PRWEB) November 14, 2017 -- Clearinghouse Community Development Financial Institution (Clearinghouse CDFI) announced today a $2 million Class A equity investment from Western Alliance Bank. With this investment, Western Alliance Bank becomes Clearinghouse CDFI’s largest equity investor based in the state of Arizona.

This generous investment makes Western Alliance Bank our largest Arizona-based shareholder. We are pleased to leverage these dollars tenfold to significantly and positively impact communities throughout the Western United States.

Clearinghouse CDFI will use this investment to benefit low-income and distressed communities in the Western United States and Sovereign Nations. The $2 million investment will help Clearinghouse CDFI continue financing community facilities, affordable housing, commercial real estate, and other projects that create jobs and services in underserved areas. Specifically, these funds will go to areas serviced by Western Alliance Bank’s divisions.

Similar projects previously financed by Clearinghouse CDFI include:

  • MSA Annex, LLC, Tucson, AZ—A $2.7 million loan for the construction of a new community retail and entertainment center to help create jobs and services in a low-income area
  • Veteran’s Village, Las Vegas, NV—A $5.6 million loan to help create 204 affordable homes for veterans
  • North Fork Community Development Council, North Fork, CA—$4.1 million in loans to create a bioenergy facility powering 800 homes annually with renewable green energy

“This generous investment makes Western Alliance Bank our largest Arizona-based shareholder,” said Douglas J. Bystry, President / Chief Executive Officer of Clearinghouse CDFI. “We are pleased to leverage these dollars tenfold to significantly and positively impact communities throughout the Western United States.”

Clearinghouse CDFI has funded $1.5 billion in total loans for over 1,820 community projects over the past 20 years. These projects have created or retained more than 16,500 jobs and benefit over 1.5 million individuals. This includes the rehabilitation of more than 15.1 million square feet of blighted properties. These projects have benefited over 610 separate underserved communities throughout California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Native American Reservations.

“We are so pleased to be partnering with Clearinghouse CDFI and we applaud the organization for its efforts to make a real impact in communities where help is most needed,” said Barbara Boone, Senior Vice President and CRA Officer for Western Alliance Bank.
